On annotating the alignment, cant gradient values are displaying in 1:1, 1:3 & 1;15 in place of 1:1000, 1:300 & 1:1500. I've created text favorite for cant alignment from Annotation Plan > Plan Alignment > Cant Point. If cant gradient doesn't have a zero…

In OpenRail Designer-2021 Release 1 update 10 version 10.10.01.03, I am working on the training set for Quick Start Rail Modeling. When I open the "Corridor-MainLine.dgn" file, I am unable to select the Cant I created in the "Rail_Geometry.dgn" file.…

Hi, is it possible to change cant behavior in reverse spirals? I am using OpenRail Designer 10.11. This is what I see in cant editor: But this is what I was expecting (image taken from BRT help): Thank you for any suggestion. Aleš Kuna

Hi I have an alignment of 150km with cant. If I try and report the cant in ORD (Release 2022R1) it takes over 10 minutes. If I report the cant for the same alignment in PRT, the report is almost instant. What is going on and is there any way…

Dear All, How can cant be imported into ORD? During cant editing, the cant editor consumes more time; is there a faster way to edit cant? Regard's Asad

Hello, I am struggling with the problem- same in my work and revisiting the training dataset. When trying to assign cant to corridor, it would not allow me to select corridor. Tried Default (2D) model- it says this tool can't be used in 2D model.…

I understand that the "Inside Rail to Inside Rail Distance" (gauge) is used in cant calculations but I do not know where the "Centreline Rail to Centreline Rail Distance" is used within the software? The help file is not very helpful in this regard (see…

Hi, We recenty updated our ORD from 2019 R1 to 2021 R1 and have found that you can't import cant from an alg file anymore. Presumably we all have to have OpenRail now instead. Does anyone know in which release this feature was removed?

Good morning, Some adminitrations have a requirement for cant that is to apply doucines at change gradient points in cant diagram. In a specific project, the administration is asking us to place link curves (doucines) of R=2500m at those points, in…

hello all, I'm newbie in here so try to understand how to use open rail. when I make cant above on a ballast but cannot see.. want to know how to make cant well and how to check it made or not. want to make like this and also make…

Hi dear users, Do you know a workflow fit for OpenRail Connect Edition to get cant value at any chainage? I was trying to get report for cant, but it shows just the values on critical points of the alignment, also tried to add event points at needed…

Hi, I would like to ask about the descriptions of the cross sections. Specifically, I deal with the description of segments. Is it possible to somehow create an expression that would describe in a cell the points that would be given by FD? I would like…

Hi - hope someone can help, please. I exported my design from MX in LandXML format, which I know from experience loses the cant. That's all okay, though. But I've gone through the steps to add the cant and re-export the XML, but am having some trouble…

I am using Power Rail Track SS10 and the civil tool commands shown below 1) Import geometry from .alg (do not create civil rules) 2) The centreline geometry is imported (also gets opened in power rail with associated vertical/cant) 3) As a…

Hi all, I did some corridor testing in OpenRail (2020 Release 2 Update8) and noticed a strange behavior of Cant point controls. In this extreme case, I made a horizontal alignment, where a perpendicular line to certain points of the alignment would…

Hello, Is it possible to define the starting point of the cant on the transition curve? For example, there is a curve from a length of 200 m and I would like to create a starting point for a cant at the middle of its length.

Dear All, According to my knowledge and information located on this forum which I have found till now there is no possibility to view rate of change of cant or rate of change of cant deficency automatically on plan view in RailTrack SS2. Can someone…

Hi! In our desing we are forced to place turnouts on the curve with applied cant/ respective on the transition curve. Profile in the turnouts are calculate using option "Create verticals" from mainline. Cant is applided so it is rotate about inside…

Hi, I have two preference files, one displays existing vs. proposed cant (see image) - perfect, the second displays a cant alignment - I have been tasked with editing the second preference file however, for the life of me in the preference manager cannot…

I made a quick test in OpenRail Designer with a simple geometry (consists of 2 straight lines and a curve R=900m and transition curves L=80m). This is the parameters before the cant is created: My questions: (1) Can I change the "Equilibrium constant…

Hi, Is it possible to ad a complete component (Rails) that will react wit the cant from the ALG file. Or do I have to redesign the whole template of the Rail to let it react with cant? See image. Thanks in advance. Christiaan

Can i convert GENIO file into .alg file . I have dgn file or GENIO file and want to work on PROL is it possible ?
