Annotating and Labelling Intersecting Alignment Stationing in Cross Sections

Annotating and labeling cross sections within ORD is missing the functionality to label the stationing of intersecting alignments shown on roadway cross sections. While feature names (alignment names) and elevations of intersecting alignments can ...

Separate vertical alignment model from horizonal geometry

One of my biggest pain points about ORD is if the horizontal geometry is dropped or broken, the vertical is consequently lost as well. This creates significant rework from a design and plan production standpoint (connected named boundaries). One w...

Creating pattern/hatch for cut/fill area in Cross-section

It seems that currently it is possible to hatch/pattern corridor template components using Feature Definition. However, it does not show when applied to cut/fill meshes. Would be great to have this as an enhancement

Reassign/Reattach Civil Labels

It would be nice to have the ability to reattach civil labels to a new element or terrain. A good example is for jointing/geometric sheets with a lot of spot elevations. Fairly often a new terrain is created and the spots break and need to be repl...

Ability to Update Annotation Groups

Currently for drawing model annotation groups, if the user wants to update the annotation, they would need to remove the outdated annotation group, which would removal all annotation groups, and then reapply all annotation groups. It would be nice...

Open API to programmatically create Feature Definitions and Feature Symbologies.

It would be extremely helpful, if we were able to programmatically create Feature Definitions and Feature Symbologies so that automation of the creation of new 'Custom Drainage Features' every time a drainage structure had a different bottom box (...

import parcels, survey chains, lines, curves, spirals from GPK

Since GEOPAK is no longer supported. I have heard from Bentley time and time again that we can get to our data out of the GPK and import it into ORD. BUT this is only true for chains, profiles and points. What about Parcels? survey chains? lines? ...

Cut and Fill Lines Connect

In the previous Bentley software our DOT used, the software was able to connect the cut and fill lines when transitioning from cut and fill between template drops. Currently the only way that is possible is to have a feature name override on the c...

Need to add functionality to LBS for struts/web walls between pier columns.

Currently, if an OBM model is defined with a strut/web wall between pier columns, the strut will not transfer to LBS, and there is no way within the LBS substructure design module to add a strut/web wall. This is a hug problem because we have brid...

Add functionality to LBS to handle round variable column definition and analysis/design

Currently, if a bridge is modeled in OBM using variable columns with a round cross-section, that column cannot be accurately transferred to LBS, nor can a variable-round cross-section be defined, analyzed, or designed within LBS. This is a big hol...
