Display transparent catchment boundary at the cursor when relocating an inlet.

Enable the user when relocating a catch basin to view the catchment boundary as the inlet location is adjusted. Thus, acting as a dynamic and transparent view of the catchment boundary for the inlet at the new location. This will simplify the work...

Add a Geometry Connector tool for Vertical Geometry

Cuurently OpenRail implements a tool called Geometry Connector (similar to Multiple Horizontal element Regression Analysis in Power Rail Track). However similar geometry tool is not available for vertical geometry calculations. It would be possibl...

3D cut-in profile to carry the same line symbology present in the XS named boundaries

User expecting to be 3D cut should mimic the display style of the 3D view. Currently, the limitation is that a cross-section in ORD can only be cut between two lines, and not along a complex element. It should go inside the display style and let y...

User option for linear stroking when creating terrains while processing field data in 3d files.

It would be very useful to big back the user option for stroking linear elements when creating terrains. This was available in v8i and greatly enhanced our surface models. Right now there is a configuration variable but it can't be set by users. A...

Annotate Multiple Terrain levels in Cross section frames annotation

In our legacy software packages we regularly annotated levels of multiple Terrain surfaces and the level differences between them in Cross sections and we look to have lost this functionality in ORD so far. This is especially useful to annotate th...

Allow users to see horizontal and vertical alignments while in view only mode.

Wise users open files in read-only mode when they don’t intend to change the file. ORD should promote good file practice to allow us to view geometry when we are in view only mode.

Enhancement to Create Terrain Model from Multiple Toggled Field Books

There is currently not a way to create a terrain model from toggling multiple field books under the Survey Data tab. Users can currently use the Create Terrain Model From Field Book Selection Set tool to create a terrain from an element selection ...

Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

As part of the profile superelevation annotation, the annotation currently cannot annotate the location where the superelevation is 0%. This would be helpful to show in plans and for designers to easily see the station this point is at.
