Are there any native tools in Connect Edition, similar to MX Road, to check stopping sight distance along an alignment, specifying object alignment, eye alignment, comparing with a surface, and report it to a text file as:
Station | Distance Achieved
This was a native function out of MX Road, and Bentley did not bother to place any tool in SS4. Did they put anything in Connect Edition?
We have an Enhancement logged concerning the Sight Visibility. Enhancement 698123.

Why was it removed in the first place? Stopping sight distance is a fundamental check that controls project alignments and has massive impact on right-of-way.
Hi Alex, tbc but for what I understand, the technical reason is because MX is a 32-bit application while ORD is 64-bit. A 64-bit OS has a different architecture and in order to use its full potential, 32-bit programs have to be partially or completely redesigned.
