InRoads SS2 V08.11.07.566 Problems...Problems

I have been a InRoads user for 30 plus years. I am having problems an issues with the version listed above. I downloaded this version to take advantage of cross-sections with components that cross the outlined grid. With this version they get clipped. All is well.

I have never experience these issue before

Here are my issues:

1.) Unable to add a surface to a set of existing cross-sections. The surface was created after the sections were cut and edited. The surface I created is a non-triangulated feature based model that has my all of my drainage pipes for display purposes. I have created Styles and preferences to have cells placed were the pipes cross the sections. I do this for utilities as well. I have used this method for a very long time now with good success. Now it will not work unless I re-cut the sections in another file or model view and reference the new sections to the old sections. Not good.

2.) When cutting sections with multiple surfaces (such as an interchange) with components, the components will not show up on the adjoining surfaces, just the top surface line. Sometimes re-running the model helps in the active session of InRoads.

3.) When cutting sections with the active surface and active alignment, my end conditions will not display. The end conditions in all of my templates are a "Parent" to a "child" which is subgrade component. The subgrade has different solutions associated with the end condition for my 3 solutions. A cut, an fill and a fill for when the solution is solved before subgrade can daylight to the fill slope resulting in the subgrade to "box out" vertically.  

4.) We use ProjectWise CONNECT version exclusively for our 12,000 plus staff throughout the world. I am have access control issues with multiple users in the same .ALG file. I have set my geometry access to Read-Only where as the user will "check out" the alignment and check back in when complete. Last week we discovered the .ALG file overwritten by an older version. We lost some significant changes that we made to alignments and had to go back and fix.

I am not sure if the version is doing this or operator error. I think it may be the version......Hopefully.

I currently have requested thru my company a newer version (V08.11.07.615). It will be a few days before I will have it installed and find out if this was the fix.

If anyone has any comments on this I am all ears.

This is client driven. we are awaiting the client to release their seed files to ORD. We are skipping over OpenRoads 4.0
