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...
Cross Section drawing/sheet models should honor level On/Off from 3D models without refresh
Summary:
When users turn levels off in the Default 3D models, that display state does not carry into cross section drawing/sheet models without opening them more than once. This creates unexpected sheet output where items that are intentionally hi...
Native Terrain Contour Extraction tool in ORD similar to GeoPAK's Load DTM Features tool
OpenSite Designer currently displays terrain contours as dynamic, rule-based graphics that remain associated with the terrain model. While this workflow is suitable during design development, some users require permanent contour graphics during dr...
Ability to Delete specific Annotation group instance instead of all instances
Currently users need to remove all annotation per drawing or in all drawings with no control. An additional "Delete Drawing Annotation" with the same options as the annotate drawings one but with an additional "All Drawing Annotation Groups" optio...
Greater flexibility to display vertical geometry on profile sheets
Currently, vertical geometry can ONLY be displayed within the profile model of its parent horizontal alignment. On complex roadway projects, this profile view often contains numerous overlapping elements, such as:
Northbound and southbound PGLs ...
Plan-Profile-Profile drawing/sheet creation with named boundaries
Plan-Profile[LT]-Profile[RT] (and Profile[LT]-Profile[RT]) sheet creation for LT/RT split/bifurcated profile grade lines has been requested more frequently by our internal designers and our consultant designers. We have a workflow that can accompl...
Named Boundary Creation - Option to Not Use Saved Views!
When creating named boundaries of any time, a saved view is created for each named boundary. The creation of a saved view is a method that is supposed to control the look and feel of the drawing/sheet, but it is over-complicated, poorly understood...
Ability for Cross Sections to be split or have match lines if the Model Extend Outside of Default limits
Currently our DOTs require that if elements are outside the width of the default limit, the user needs to create a matchline and/or split the cross sections. Currently this is a very manual process. This should be more automated.
End Area Volumes are still a contractual requirement on projects. We need a tool to correct the earthwork calculations around curves like the GEOPAK “Centroid Adjustment” tool that did that correction and provided a summary of the centroid locatio...
