These are from memory, so there may be some minor errors in my recollections. But the basics are pretty good.
In Roadway Designer, we could:
- Hover over points and learn point names
- Right click on points to define point controls
- And if there were little colored squares, the right click also offered you the Edit ... Control menu so you could open the Edit Point Control or Edit Parametric Constraint dialog box
- We could see in Plan, where a point control was in effect (although sometimes this was flawed)
- When in a dialog box with lists of controls, we could temporarily sort them by start or stop stations as well as point names or any other columns. In OpenRoads, clicking on column headers does not seem to do anything
- In the Element Template you can reorder children of a group. It would be nice if we could do a similar thing in the Project Explorer tabs. This would allow reordering of point controls and other things on a more permanent basis.
Of these, the inability to sort is pretty big, but being able to select a point control or parametric constraint in the section made working with them way easier than Open Roads.
