  • Modifying Attributes of 3D linework generated within ORD

    I was once told never to modify elements in the 3D view of a ORD model. Does that include changing it's attributes and/or level directly in the 3D view? As I understand it, ORD should automatically create the 3D "profile" linework attributes in 3D based…
  • STENCIL 2D ELEMENT ON 3D GEOMETRY

    Hi all, I am having a problem in Open roads designer connect edition with the command STENCIL 2D ELEMENT ON 3D GEOMETRY. This command (in Visualization) helps to drape 2D mesh layer onto 3D surface above it. But for Some surfaces, the 3D DRAPED projection…
  • EOT line Profile By Template

    How would I go about getting my EOT lines to have "profile by template"? My horizontal alignment is the only line with a profile. When I hover over any of my EOT lines they say "no active profile". I can set an active profile but want to have them automatically…
  • Point Control to Corridor

    I am modeling a bike trail with switchbacks and would like to create a point control that ties into the edge of trail that is part of the same corridor. When creating the point control the corridor is not listed as an option in the dropdown. What is the…
  • ORD - How does the stroking works when creating 3D geometry

    I'm defining some ramps to acces a parking. So I created profile for my civil geometry, I then did a terrain model with the elements. Now I would like to add more "points" in my 3D linear features. Is there a way that I can specify the software to add…
  • SS4 Create 3D geometry from SS2 .alg files

    I have a .alg file with H and V alignments made in SS2. Without making surface for it, I cannot obtain any 3D view. In SS4 I know that 3D geometry is possible to receive. How can I make 3D geometry in SS4 from .alg files? Main task is to get profile…
  • Placing ORD geometry points in 3D along a alignment, where the Elevation is taken from the Vertical design

    Has anyone had any experience with Placing ORD geometry points in 3D along a alignment, where the Elevation is taken from the Vertical design. I can get the points to place along the alignment at set intervals at a specified elevation but not taking…
  • OPENROADS- What is the equivalent of DP/OFFSET (Geopak)

    Hello, I'd like to know how to find a station in Openroads. Where can a locate an alignment put in a station number and let the program show me where it is exactly? thanks!
  • AccuDraw

    I want to draw a CL tangent alignment with Northing and Easting Bearings (i.e. S 56* 30' 30" W) but using AccuDraw with Polylines won't allow me to enter any letters in the angle dialogue box. Is this a settings issue of something I need to turn on…
  • Old Rules Appearing in Profile

    I have been updating some profiles which were orginally generated using the Profile by Slope form Element tool. The original plan elements have been joined together to form complex geometry before the old vertical alignment associated with the individual…
  • Rotate Element Annotation

    I am working on a multi sheet schematic plan. I have created a design file, referenced in my alignment and then used the annotate element tool to label it. Then I created 3 sheet files and referenced my design model into the sheet models, much like a…
  • Some crossections have problem: End conditions are above or below to target terrain model

    Hello. I am new to roadway design. I have problem about creating crossections that some of end conditions are above or below to surface. I created 3 different alignment. One is using text import wizard, horizontal and vertical alignments. One is from…
  • Draw lines in relation to terrainmodel

    I hope to find the answer to the following problem: I already have a terrainmodel. Now I get a dataset of 2D lines with at the ends a figure, saying: "This line is x cm/m below terrain" How do I get those (many) line's automatic drawn into my design…
  • Vertical alignment parameters

    Hi I have a question regarding the vertical parameters when creating a vertical alignment. If i place a circular curve of length 80m the vertical parameter comes out as something like 20 but when i view the report on the profile the actual vertical…
  • Reprojecting of referenced corridor and alignment data gone wrong

    I am trying to build up a project that crosses many state plane zones of California. I wanted to reference in Zone 3 files into a host Zone 4 file. I did so by using the Geographic tool. Found these instructions in bentley site: "To set the GCS in attached…
  • Profile Intersection Point not showing up in the Correct location

    I used the Profile Intersection Point command to view a crossing alignment on my profile but it does not seem to be showing up in the correct location. It is about 25 feet off from the expected location. Any Ideas? Power InRoads SS4 08.11.09.789…
  • InRoads Surface Edits with Modeler

    I am editing the surface manually instead of using a ton of end condition overrides in Roadway Designer. Once I have done the edits to the surface, will I be able to use the Model at all? Will the model override all my changes that I did manually to the…
  • Is there a way to create a TIN or DTM from a proposed 3D design file?

    I have completed my design in SS3 OpenRoads, and I currently have a default model and a 3D model for my design. I would like to create a TIN or DTM of the entire 3D model because it has all the proposed surfaces and elements I will need. Is there a way…
