Insert Vertex tool

Tool that adds vertex at chosen interval to a selected element segments. The "facet" tool is supposed to achieve this, but it is not designed to respect original element vertexes. So it ends up modifing the element path. The tool should work insid...

Hatching in Cross section drawing model

The create region tool doesn't recognize visible edges from the 3d model to create closed shapes by flood. There are many instances were it is needed to calculate areas in cross sections.

Add better management tool/window for terrains sources elements

There is no effective panel for editing the terrain sources elements. The only available tools are the add/remove feature or the "Edit Terrain" tool with it's ""delete feature". All the above are extremely dependable on visual and clickable data. ...

Merge and separate geometry with dependencies from and into multiple DGNs

When you have multiple files with geometry which reference each other, I think there should be a tool to allow you to merge those DGN's into one without losing relationships e.g. I can merge my main alignment file and the file which contains my ch...

dont have two different named boundary dialogs

this comes from CS0394270 the Microstation Named Boundary tool is still present in ORD. In the search ribbon if you type in Named Boundary and take the first option it opens the Microstation Named Boundary dialog and not the ORD one (so its missin...

Enhancing Named Boundaries: Updating Named Boundaries and Applying Geometry Rules

To enhance productivity and efficiency in live projects, we need dynamic Named Boundaries linked to Geometry. This includes the ability to update the shape or location of a named boundary after creating a sheet model, with the changes reflected in...

Add a tool (or an option to the existing place point tool) to compute the traverse using a deflection angle instead of an absolute angle.

The existing Locate Point tool using the Traverse and Radial methods functionally does something similar, but must have 180 degrees added manually to the deflection angles to get the absolute angle.

Improve Civil Labeler so it doesn't leave little circles in the dgn

Currently, when labels are placed, small circle elements are added to the file. While these circles are necessary for maintaining the connection between the element and the label, they present several challenges: File Clutter: The addition of h...

Develop and Annotate Partial Geometry

In my experience, it's common to tie a proposed vertical alignment into an existing vertical curve. This can be easily done with the geometry tools. However, the annotation is only drawn to where the proposed geometry terminates. While technically...

Automatic Dimension Masking

Need to have the ability for dimension lines that cross other dimension lines be automatically masked. This has traditionally been done by adjusting extension lines, but with associative dimensions, this is not feasible. The order of dimension pla...
