Step-by-Step Guidance for Resolving Inlet Issues

Provide step-by-step help or guidance within the software to troubleshoot and fix inlets that display as red dashed. This would help users understand and resolve issues without external support.

Drainage flex tables for referenced drainage models

Having a drainage flex table that can be used for drainage models that are referenced (this could just be physical information: ID, size, material, inverts, etc., and zoom to) would help so much in reviewing designs.

Static Drainage Profiles

Creates drainage profiles that are static (non-dynamic) that are very quick/simple to make (15-seconds), much like SS2 was, to better enable iterative design.

Civil arc defined by 3 tangent points

Something very useful in MicroStation and AutoCAD is the ability to define an arc by 3 tangent points. The elements could be of any type and each point would belong to a different element.

Break decks into sections

Usually, the bridge deck of a precast beam is an integral unit per span. In actual construction, the bridge deck may be constructed in sections for each beam. Is it possible to break the bridge deck into sections for each beam, and further divide ...

Expand range options of Horizontal Feature Constraints

Horizontal feature constraints are a huge benefit to streamlining corridor modeling and tying design intent to civil geometry. The range options (-, 0, +) are pretty limited and often trigger components to behave improperly. Adding more options to...

In regression anaylsis, move the text off the regression line

I've attached couple of screen shots to get my point across. When I do regression, the regression line is selected and highlights. The slew/lift (depending if its horizontal or vertical reg) are displayed ,but right on the millimeter text is where...

Apply Z (elevation) corrections fro residual surface to existing elements without changing X,Y

OpenRoads Designer currently lacks a workflow to apply spatially varying Z corrections derived from a mesh to existing geometry, while preserving the X and Y coordinates. This is helpful for situations like in point‑cloud‑driven workflows, users f...
