Variable Constraints on a Skew

I've found that variable constraints are highly effective when support lines are perpendicular to the alignment. However, when a skew is introduced to these support lines, a variable constraint continues to function perpendicular to the alignment ...

OBM should support multi-model, 2D and 3D workflows similar to OpenRoads

Users currently need to always start with a 3D file in OBM unlike in ORD. Allow users to support the multi-model (2D and 3D) behavior similar to OpenRoads Designer. All decorations should be in the 2D file and all 3D objects in the 3D file. When s...

Location of embedded battered piles set at bottom of footing

Currently, for abutment and piers, when battered piles are used in combination with an embedment length, the pile location is set based on top of pile not the bottom of footing. When users input pile spacings into the pile layout dialog, it is not...

For steel beams- When we create stiffeners and use them in cross frame definition, regardless of the method used, the stiffener tables when opened default to the first stiffener in the OBM library rather than the stiffener used in cross frame definition

Currently when we create a new stiffener and then when we create cross frames using those stiffeners, they don't show up when you open stiffener definition after creating cross frames (the first stiffener definition within the selection is shown)

Have different icons for each version of a civil product

The current desktop icons are the same color for all versions and is confusing with multiple versions installed. If the icons for each version was a different color for each release it would make for quicker identification of version.

Exported TIN surface must carry same edge method on importing.

Exported surface in TIN format not keeping the same edge method while importing it in new .dgn file. So, it is expected to get such functionality where the exported surface should carry the same edge method or while importing any surface it should...

Ability to change the bridge type after creating the bridge in OBM

Being able to change the superstructure type after the deck, substructures, approaches have already been modeled. Currently once you select the Bridge Type it locks you into that superstructure type and any work you complete under that bridge type...
