Ability to Copy Corridors and Parts of Corridors

Developing projects requires many iterations involving multiple alternatives. For simpler projects it may be feasible to manually duplicate a corridor but as corridors get more complex this method becomes more cumbersome and prone to error. When d...

Restore tool Delete Triangle by Line - Edit Terrain - back to its original function of not being able to cross breaklines or add a dialog box for the option.

In SS4 on up to ORD 10.10.2, you could not delete a triangle on the interior side of a breakline. When a line was drawn, all triangles would be deleted until it got to the breakline. In ORD 10.12, it blows through the breakline and will delete int...

rotate cells placed by field book

We need to be able to manually rotate survey cells in a 3D file. Yes, I understand there are macros to automate this. But simply put, we should be able to use the microstation rotate command and have the cell respond.
