GEOPAK Drainage gave you inlet calcs after you placed an inlet and assigned a catchment without having to run a scenario. We need this functionality in ORD

In Geopak Drainage, once you place a node and attached a catchment, you were able to see inlet calculations. This let the user know if they needed to shift the box to have an allowable spread. It would be great if we could get that feedback withou...

Need to be able to read the GEOPAK Drainage binary file and export to a spreadsheet – without having GEOPAK installed or running

Geopak is no longer supported by Bentley. At some point, Geopak will not be installed on our machines, but we may need to get the calculations that reside in the GDF file. We need a method that will allow us to extract the information we need from...

Send to Back

Add a “Send to Back” feature for vector linework (what order you see and print levels in). Currently there is a "Bring to Front" option. AUTOCAD has this feature and I think it would be very helpful to not only me. Thank you.

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...

Patch Product More Often

I will use ORD as an example. I, along with many others, have chosen to remain on ORD 10.12 due to a constant string of issues with more current releases. Most recently, I tried to upgrade a project from 10.12 to 24. This resulted in my Text File ...

Live Element Annotation in Drawing Models via Annotation Groups

There can be a lot of instances on a project where a detail in a section is not practical to model 3D, and the user feels compelled draw the element live in the drawing model. It would be great to capture live elements with annotation groups, as t...

Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain

Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...

Trench Templates to automatically constrain themselves based on the pipe size

Trench templates are used on pipes for fill quantities. It would be useful if you could place a trench that would automatically assign parametric constraints based on the size and pipe thickness of the pipes. Also, shapes other than a circle are d...

Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes
