Geometry Points ruled by Name to allow users to move Points by importing ASCII

Ruling point import by name would add some powerful automation to the software. If a user could import a Point via ASCII and have any existing Points with the same name update (while maintaining the same object) this would allow things like posts ...

Put the DEPTH point type back in the survey import

In InRoads there was an option to import data as depths instead of elevations. This is common practice for hydrographic data, as many dedicated programs have positive elevations being below 0, with elevations above as negatives. ASCII files can be...

Save LeapBridge Concrete design that is exported from LeapBridge Steel

Currently, any substructure design that is created from LeapBridge Steel (LBS) is stored directly in the OpenBridge Designer (OBD) file. To allow multiple people to work on a project at once, it would be easier to have a save as option in LBS Subs...

Ability to Update/Load additional Pipe networks from Civil 3d

Currently When importing pulling in pipe networks (both utility and drainage) two things happen 1.) They lose a lot of data. 2.) you can only do it once. Then you have to erase EVERYTHING and do it again. The workflow generally goes like this: So ...

Creating Generic Curb Offsets

I would like to create a generic curb for airborne lidar extraction with a 0.5 ft vertical offset from the gutter to the top of curb and then a 0.5 ft horizontal offset from the top of curb to the back of curb. I would want to collect the gutter a...
