curved corners in bridge geometry

OBM should allow o define sharp corners for decks and barriers (in addition to rounded). Currently every turn is interpolated using spline type of line, without control from user end (regardless of the manipulation for the chord and distance betwe...

Adjust bearing vertically

In order for the place bearing tool to work for as many instances as possible, we either need to be able to adjust the bearing's vertical location due to shim plate placement on an individual basis or else allow for different cells to be used at t...

3d measure between any to points.

I have used a 3d measure macro in Microstation for 20 years now. I love it. It would be nice to have this feature in ORD . Would be simple to add. The way the tool would work: Users snap between any two points. I dialog would pop up displaying the...

In "Template Options" dialog, add option to apply affixes to parametric constraints

The Create Template feature has a "Template Options" dialog that allows you to apply affixes to a component when dropping it into a template (e.g. automatically appending "_L" and "_R" to the end of point and component names). This feature doesn't...

Corridor Modeling for 90 degrees corners

In modeling the road or site with geometry corner in 90 degrees or sharp, the small arc of corner is required in order to model the round corner. So that no overlap between 3d linear geometry. Software should provide the option to allow the corner...

Feature Lines Similar to Civil 3D

It would be nice to be able to graphically change elevation and slope of an element similar to feature lines in Civil 3D. Made it really quick to create break lines and grade areas without have to go into a profile view and create a vertical profi...

Generate 2D Closed Shape from Corridor Component or Other Mesh

It would be extremely useful to have the option to generate a 2D shape of the top planar surface of a 3D component that updates as the corridor changes. This would be similar to how corridor points can already generate a 2D line if specified in th...

Add ability to Target Alias and clip a Conical Slope

The conical slope feature is very useful for model detailing. We use these often at bridge abutments. It would be helpful if we could target alias these features and also clip them.
