Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain

Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...

Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes

Ability to export and import all corridor objects such as point controls to enable rebuilding of corridors

I know parametric constraints can be exported but if a corridor becomes corrupt then being able to rebuild it from scratch easily would be useful. Similar to an input file in MX

Greater flexibility to display vertical geometry on profile sheets

Currently, vertical geometry can ONLY be displayed within the profile model of its parent horizontal alignment. On complex roadway projects, this profile view often contains numerous overlapping elements, such as: Northbound and southbound PGLs ...

GEOPAK Drainage gave you inlet calcs after you placed an inlet and assigned a catchment without having to run a scenario. We need this functionality in ORD

In Geopak Drainage, once you place a node and attached a catchment, you were able to see inlet calculations. This let the user know if they needed to shift the box to have an allowable spread. It would be great if we could get that feedback withou...

Horizontal Range Option for Loop Alignment Modeling Controls

When modeling a loop ramp (or any situation where the alignment doubles back on itself) point controls and target aliases have a tendency to find solutions that are technically correct across the infield but that are not the intended solution. For...

Button to synchronize all template drops for all corridors & linear templates in a file

I'd like a tool that synchronizes all template drops in all corridors in a file, right now they have to each be manually selected in the explorer or on screen.

Retain built-up girder data even if error encountered

I have been working with a long bridge with a SE transition. It is a little over 1,000 feet long and there are varying flange thicknesses along each girder. Each girder is different. In other words, that is a lot of data entry. OBM does not like s...

Show Slopes in Properties

Request to add the slope of an element in the properties tab. Why is it useful? Allows designers to check slopes at a glance without using dimensioning tools. Slope in relation to the global origin would be helpful for typical sections. However, i...

OBM Place Bearing List Order Causing Item and Material Misclassification

The current order of OBM’s Place Bearing groups is creating significant confusion regarding which item group corresponds to the Bearing and Grout Pad/Bevel Plate. Because the group order changes depending on configuration, the same physical compon...
