Add Relationship Tree View to simplify understanding why circular references happen

Given that ORD is capable of recognising when it is creating a circular relationship reference, it would be very useful to have something like a geometry relationships "tree" we can view to understand the links between elements which would immense...

Slope to Mesh - "Create 3d Line By Slope to Terrain" to include Meshes

Update the the "Create 3d Line By Slope to Terrain" to include slope to Mesh. This will allow users to grade to 3d meshes created by linear template components and corridor components. Currently if I want to daylight to a corridor mesh with this c...

Enhanced Mathematical functions in the Constraint Equation dialog

As a Template Developer I want enhanced mathematical functions in the constraint equation dialog so that I can spend less time trying to achieve the tasks with fewer workarounds. Workarounds: The users find they must do a lot of workarounds to per...

Infill grading tool

Provide a tool to quickly create infield gradings. When creating infield gradings, often we only to include part of a geometry element instead of the entire element. Because the terrain from element tool doesn't have the option to only import part...

Need modeling of curved wing walls

Currently in OBM wingwalls can only be modeled straight (and skewed). We need to be able to model curved wing walls, i.e. on a horizontal curve.

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 ...

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...

enhance ORD Cross section to have same capabilities as Clip Volumes (for Point clouds in particular)

For now ORD Cross sections have limited capabilities compared to MS Clip volumes. Request is that ORD cross sections do inherit full capabilities of MS Clip volumes, including capability to define a thickness for point clouds and project the Point...

Apply Surface Template by Selection Set

I would like to be able to apply a surface template to multiple terrain models at once, either by a previously-selected selection set, or by selecting one or more terrain models within the tool itself. In the attached image I would like to apply t...

Ability to create a 3D ruled element when two gradings cut each other

When two gradings cut each other, for example mine corridor grading and a lateral ramp grading, you can use the Define target aliasing tool to use one of the two gradings as a target for the corridor containing the other grading to obtain the 3d l...
