*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…

Hi I'm using Power Geopak V8i SS10. Very new user. I am working on modeling an intersection. I have laid out a pavement/wearing surface with edge of pavement lines. I applied my curb & gutter/sidewalk/tie as a linear template to EOP lines. When adjusting…

I'm using Power Geopak V8i SS10. Very new user. I have my centerline horizontal and vertical created and both have been exported to the gpk. My geometry file is referenced into my model file. When in my model dwg, if I switch to 3D space, the centerline…

I am attempting to use the Complex By Elements tool to create vertical geometry. When I try to select my first element, I get the error message, "Element not valid for tool". I am in what appears to be a 2D view. I cannot use plan by 3D element on the…

I've been learning the alignment (horizontal and vertical) and geometry tools, creating useful relationships to enable easy changes later. The only thing I'm unsure about is the approach to making major changes to alignments and geometry. I know you…

Does anyone know how to plot a profile in reverse? The profile model displays left to right, and the client wants to see the profile as it will be constructed along the main alignment, so I need to plot this profile from right to left on the sheet.

Bentley, I think you should task one of your employees to design a real project with OpenRoads Designer. Which means modeling a roadway project then after corridors are created start modifying the alignments. This includes extending alignments , removing…

I have drawn horizontal elements to form a horizontal alignment in open roads. Normally, when you select such an alignment, orange text and orange cursors appear around the element so that you can manipulate it and the alignment. However, I get no such…

I have a dgn file containing an alignment with vertical geometry referenced into a work file. I would like to create a profile of the geometry in my work file, the problem is that the profile view only shows the vertical geometry. It does not show a line…

I'm kinda new to OpenRoads. I've been using Civil 3D for a few years but now I'm trying to build a workflow with Bentley software. My question is: Is there a way to create a set of rules regarding geometry (maximum and minimun radius, tangents lenght…

hola de la misma manera que disponemos de la norma Americana y la de Reino Unido: existe un dgnlib la la norma española? la norma 3.1-IC Trazado. O tengo que modificar alguno de estos dgnlib y adaptarlo a nuestra norma? gracias!!

I would like to use the InRoads Bridge Geometry tools to quickly layout girders on a tightly curved bridge. This would be a very useful tool if I could get it to work. Instead of manually drawing girder lines and checking max/min deck overhang, max/min…

Hi, everyone, I built an Horizontal Alignment using "Complex by PI" option. At a certain point, I wanted to edit it with the Table Editor. When I positionned my cursor over the alignment, I had the message: "Complex Geometry must be PI Based". Why is…

Hi I am a designer in NSW, Australia. I am currently trying to develop a civil cell for a median island at a signalised intersection, but I am encountering some trouble getting a single radius median nose to work as I intend it due to greyed out snaps…
