I would like to be able to annotate slopes manually using the civil labeler. (Or any tool, really). Any text favorite I use gives me a slope of zero percent. I can only seem to find one that lets me select by element, not 2 points. Either would be…

Hello Team, We are creating XS from our corridor but we ran to an annotation problem, the annotation group was not adding the name of the Alignment. What I did to fix this was editing the Text Favorite that the Annotation Group was using to annotate…

Hello, Typically, we use the points from the template for slope, so i was thinking to use the points for the width annotation. However, our workspace does not have an existing "width" annotation group so I am unsure how to add the expression to annotate…

I am trying to generate cross slope report @ 10 m interval by station base or station offset report but i am not getting appropriate values of cross slope in report. It seems correctly in cross-section view. Am missing something ?? Images is ready for…

Curious if it's possible to change location of where my profile named boundary is placed? The profile I created is exaggerated by 10, you can see the starting elevation is 90 & matches the Y value. I would prefer if my Y value equaled 900 at the…

Hi Guys, I cant figure out how to correct station intervals in my production profile sheet . After using chainage equation, ahead station of my profile showing unevenly. Regards , Lalit

Hi, Using ORD 2021 Release 1 and Autocad C3D 2022. Profile Geometry Annotation lose values in export, K-value and grade change to 0.0 and Lines are exported between Profile IPs on Layer 0. Please find the Images. Thanks Lalit

*Edit: I am using OpenRoads Designer 2020 R3 I have a spreadsheet that requires the drainage areas for a ditch to be input every 50 feet right and left along an alignment. The “manual” method I would use to accomplish this would be to use the measure…

Is there an accepted standard working unit for ORD? If i set the units to 10,000/FT annotation seems to work correctly. if i use a different unit, such as our company standard or a client standard, the annotation does not come in at the correct size.…

Hello all, Is it possible to annotate the Profile view (where you design the vertical alignment). I would like to see the Circular Curve Radius and length. When i set up an annotation group , the annotation is only visible in the 'Civil profile' view…

I am having an issue with alignment stations annotating with the feature name (C-ALG) instead of the stationing (0+00). I made a copy of an existing DGNLIB from another environment to make it specific to a client that doesn't have an ORD config. I edited…

I've got multiple issues currently with profile views in ORD 2019 R2 (10.07.03.18) Profile views randomly break such that linear element is lost, annotation broken and view is unrecoverable. We cannot determine a specific cause for the behavior…

I have set up a profile annotation group and all of the supporting Element Templates in a dgnlib. I have used the Element Templates to set the level for each annotation entity however, when I apply the annotation group to another file, all of the annotation…

I originally posted this question 2 years ago under "ORD Contour Text Orientation and how to remove the m in the Contour Text" In InRoads SS2, it is possible for the top contour text to be always on the uphill side of the contour line. How do this…

We as a DOT are in process of switching from SS4 to ORD. I am very comfortable calculating quantities so far in ORD but there seems to be no equivalent of Quantity Manager. This was a great feature for recording all of our pay items and quickly harvesting…

I wonder if there is a handout or manual explaining the annotation filter options. Currently on Openroads R1 update 7. Need help on creating a filter that excludes all features except the edge off pavement feature. So the segment between eop's can…

Hey everyone, I am working on designing a sanitary sewer line through a site. I have the line made and the profile works fine. After I made my sheet to show the profiles for the sewer, the information that would come from annotation is missing. The reason…

In OpenRoads Designer, is there a setting to allow labels to be placed relative to the current view? Similar to how dimensions and notes have always worked in Microstation. I am trying to place a label (station, offset) in a design model with the view…

Hi all, Does anyone know if wildcards are possible in the ORD Annotation Filter for properties like Feature definition, Feature name, etc? It seems that each feature name or definition needs to be explicitly defined and not even feature definition…

Is there a "smarter" way of annotating our networks? So far I just push the annotate button and it spits out the node, conduit and lateral ID. I would like to dictate the font, size, rotation, top level, invert level etc. And dare I ask for an intelligent…

When annotating surfaces in the new openroads cross sections, there does not appear to be a way to control which points get labeled - it is all or nothing. The only control appears to be not annotating points within a certain distance of each other, but…

I need guideance on cross section labeling. I have an “X” that shows on my Geopak SS3 cross sections. When I annotate the sections, I do not want to annotate slope to that point. How do I remove the “x” and not annotate the slope? Where is…

I am confused how to create cross sections sheets with annotation using Geopak SS3. Using the Create Cross Section tool the following Preferences are offered. Create Cross Sections Create Cross Section Preferences Sheet Sheet – w/o Grid…
