Include the ability to use the slope of a terrain when placing a Geometry Point

This would be good for 3D modelling of any item that needs to slope the same as the design surface such as guard fence terminals. This is available within the Drainage and Utilities, but when using this it loads a lot of other information into the...

Add option to save result as a "Report" when performing a Terrain to Terrain (or pane) Volume analysis.

Currently when performing a Terrain to Terrain (or pane) Volume Analysis, the only option for saving the result is to save it as a text string and place in a .dgn. It would be very helpful if there was an option so save this result as a report (id...

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Singapore Dataset for OpenSite Designer

Currently there is no Singapore Dataset for OpenSite Designer. I would like to request the Singapore Dataset from OpenRoads be ported over for user of OpenSite, as it contains useful dgnlib for level, cells and linestyle

We need a SINGLE LIST of configuration variables that can be filtered by ALL products and generation

It would be nice if there was a single list of configuration variables so that we don't have to hunt in different product Help documents (microstation vs openroads) to find details of how they are used. Furthermore there seems to be a lot of confi...

Survey Field Book Enhancement

Users would like the ability to create multiple field books without the terrain connecting to each. This would be necessary when surveying multiple sites for one given road project. Currently, this is done by importing the data and then going to t...

Drop Complex Status alignment but keep FD

When editing vertical alignments. When I want to edit a complex vertical alignment by adding or removing elements I usually use Drop Complex Status because I find it easier to edit those single elements than edit apart and then use Complex Redefin...

When looking at point controls/parametric constraints in Corridor Objects, highlight affected point(s) in dynamic XS view.

The legacy corridor modeler would put a white crosshair in the XS view on the specific point being manipulated when the corresponding point control was selected. I'd like this same functionality in the dynamic XS view.

Export to DWG: Civil Labeller and field texts

We need an option to drop field and labels text to plain text. After exorting to AutoCAD, when using Civil Lables or Field texts that extract values from civil elements, specially terrains, sometimes the text turn out with a 0.00 when opening the ...
