Update the tool "Create 3D By Slope To Target" to add better functionality when applied to regular 3D MicroStation linework

The tool "Create 3D By Slope To Target" can currently be applied to regular 3D MicroStation linework, but it doesn't work very well at all, assuming due to it's reliance on stroking. It is often much more efficient/simple to create certain design ...

Template Library Folder Configuration Variable

Civil configuration variables exist for opening a default/workset template library (CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY) and for the default path when performing a save as on a template library (CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY_SAVEAS) but when opening a...

Surface Template - Vertical offset

When working on sites and parking lot, sometimes we create a grading terrain to construct the slopes and low points than apply to it the pavement surface template. To model the sidewalks (think of a parking lot island) we create a clipped terrain ...

Permanent bracing (PPC girders)

This would give us the ability to make our models more complete within OBM rather than having to either model using MicroStation tools or another software (ProStructures).

Item Types for Parametric cells

Users are asking for item types for Parametric cells. Primarily for quantities reports. We tag each element, but can we expose volumes for each element in a Parametric cell. The most important things are Volume, Surface Area, Length(Column, Pile,...

Expand range options of Horizontal Feature Constraints

Horizontal feature constraints are a huge benefit to streamlining corridor modeling and tying design intent to civil geometry. The range options (-, 0, +) are pretty limited and often trigger components to behave improperly. Adding more options to...

Add ability in ORD to hover over template segment in cross section view to obtain real time cross-slope and elevation data in pop up like you can in InRoads modeler

It should work in ORD just like it works in InRoads now.

Control the level/feature definition of surface templates selection layer

Currently when you select a surface template in 3D view, a ghost mesh element under the "Default" level appears. I believe this element defines the surface template as a whole. There is presently no way of controlling this element to assign it a f...

Civil Cells does not recognize turnout elements

Civil cells does not support turnout or crossing elements. Ability to include turnout and crossings in civil cells, will enable creating civil cells for siding and yard areas.
