Add option to find 3D Linear Elements when cutting XS sheets

Right now it seems cutting XS sheets always finds meshes in the 3D model, but it won't find 3D Linear Elements. I can use Linear Templates to make sure everything gets found, but it'd be nice to have a toggle/option when placing the Named Boundaries.

Civil Labeler - Plain Text Placement

Currently, civil label fields are dependent on the associated element that provides the field information for the label. There are a number of label types that do benefit from being able to pull from multiple civil features, however their resultan...

Drawing layout from right to left - plan and profile.

Fundamental convention for technical drawing demands that the north arrow point to the top of the page. Often an alignment either provided by a client or already exiting will progress from right to left. This being said, when creating plan and pro...

User option for linear stroking when creating terrains while processing field data in 3d files.

It would be very useful to big back the user option for stroking linear elements when creating terrains. This was available in v8i and greatly enhanced our surface models. Right now there is a configuration variable but it can't be set by users. A...

import parcels, survey chains, lines, curves, spirals from GPK

Since GEOPAK is no longer supported. I have heard from Bentley time and time again that we can get to our data out of the GPK and import it into ORD. BUT this is only true for chains, profiles and points. What about Parcels? survey chains? lines? ...

Separate vertical alignment model from horizonal geometry

One of my biggest pain points about ORD is if the horizontal geometry is dropped or broken, the vertical is consequently lost as well. This creates significant rework from a design and plan production standpoint (connected named boundaries). One w...
