Annotate Slope of terrain between points in Cross Sections

Civil labeler only works for 3D linear features (points). It`s impossible to annotate the slope from the terrain between two points. If you try that, the whole terrain section is selected and the command fails. A great example is a cross section o...

Settings from Design Model should sync all 8 views in the view group

The saved view reference setting "Settings from Design Model" synchronizes the level display (and other settings) from view 1 in the reference file to ALL views in the master file. One efficient method of producing plans is to have a different lev...

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...

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for drawing model annotation groups, if the user wants to update the annotation, they would need to remove the outdated annotation group, which would removal all annotation groups, and then reapply all annotation groups.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

Volumetric Meshes created as Scalable Meshes

For large scale projects, earthwork volumetric meshes cause considerable deficits in navigation performance due to the high count of vertices and faces to be calculated with each navigational operation. Use of scalable meshes for these components ...

Include column and shaft controlling service loads (RCPIER/LEAP)

When designing drilled shafts, there is no option to display controlling shear and moment loads (bottom of column). This is needed for the geotechnical engineer on designing th drilled shaft. For column design, it is sometime useful to also show c...

Template (ITL): add parameters for component length, spacing and individual

It could be useful for different purposes to be able to create component meshes of defined length (construction, pre cast slab). I suggest to add at least 3 parameters to any component: length of the component: the question is then, where to measu...

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? ...
