Inconsistent terrain labeling

I am having an issue where symbology overrides and annotation scale is not impacting my sheet file (default, drawing and sheet models) the way it should. It seems to be emulating the situation described by the user who posted to Bentley Communitie...

View and Edit contents of a Terrain

Contents of terrains currently can't be viewed or edited. Features can be added and removed from a terrain but there is no viewable info on these elements. What elements is the terrain created from? What elements are used for triangulation? Survey...

Add some kind of optimization setting for "existing ground terrain contour display" to improve performance

We really need some kind of optimization setting available which will improve the performance of OpenRoads when Existing Ground Terrain Contours are Displayed. I believe this setting in Civil 3D is called "Level of Detail" or something. The proble...

Invert Terrain Elevation

ASCII elevation data from hydrosurveys is delivered in positive depths making for an embankment instead of a channel. A function to multiply elevations by -1 would save a trip through Excel or a GIS program.

Calculating Multiple Polygon Volumes using Analyze Volume from Terrain Model

The calculate volume tool only works on a single target polygon. If multiple polygons are present it's quite tedious to calculate one-by-one and manually sum the totals. For example in a bathy survey of a channel it's common to have different area...

Ability to control segment length when triangulating.

We are currently not able to change segment length when triangulating surface. In SS2, you can define a segment length when triangulating a surface, but we cannot find this option in the OpenRoads application. There is a Survey stroking variable, ...

Create Terrain from reprojected reference file elements

The terrain creation tools don't work well when using elements from reference files that are reprojected from other coordinate systems. This seems to be true for many of the terrain creation tools. Some tools don't allow the elements from the repr...

Trace Slope - Line Style - add direction

One issue I've found with the trace slope is that the direction is adjustable (can be down or up) and ORD isn't smart enough to change the direction of the line. This causes two issues: 1) One of your flow directions is going to be wrong, dependin...

Use 3D Element Elevation when using Edit Terrain > Insert Vertex

When inserting a vertex on a terrain using the edit tools, the vertex is put at 0 elevation (if outside the terrain) and at the terrain elevation (if inside the terrain) even if you snap to a 3D element. The current workaround requires moving the ...
