Merge and separate geometry with dependencies from and into multiple DGNs

When you have multiple files with geometry which reference each other, I think there should be a tool to allow you to merge those DGN's into one without losing relationships e.g. I can merge my main alignment file and the file which contains my ch...

ORD Profile Crossings -ORD Profile Enhancement

This idea has been submitted as an enhancement for profiles. InRoads, there was functionality to locate crossing features that would plot and annotation the location on the profile. This is a considerable time saver for long projects where many cr...

Ability to annotate the difference of slope for vertical curve (parabola)

Currently we can not annotate the grade difference on the profile parabola, We can use the Item types to build a expression to calculate the grade difference and then use the civil labeler, but this workflow works only if the profile is not comple...

Disable Point Controls Rather than Delete When Control Can't Be Found

Currently when the control - profile, alignment, feature - can't be found due to a deletion or reference detachment, the corresponding point control(s) is removed from the corridor. Considering that these events may occur inadvertently and not dis...

Enhancement to Introduce the Remapping Capability on Terrain Model’s Source Path

There is currently not a way to remap the terrain model’s source path in ORD. This capability is needed to be able to push survey data updates via rewriting a .tin file to then update from source (sourcing back to the rewritten .tin file with surv...

Stacked Cross Section easier workflow

Create a better workflow for stacked cross sections. No need for complex seeds and dgnlibs. Just choose if we want to stack everything in a drawing model or in a sheet, how many rows and columns and hit enter.Maybe define the offsets and get a pre...

Tool to Convert a Survey Linear to a Civil Geometry Complex Element or a MicroStation Linestring

There should be a one button command to convert a Survey Linear to a Civil Geometry Complex Element, a MicroStation Linestring, or individual MicroStation lines (User picks what they want). There are ways to accomplish this process now but most in...

Clip 2d geometry same as 3D corridorclip

When a corridor clip is applied, the 2D geometry is not affected by that corridor clip, only the 3d mesh is clipped. I would like an option to choose whether you'd also like to clip the 2D geometry.

Text Favorite Use Dimension Style Setting

When a Text Favorite is set to "Active Settings" it looks at the file setting and is not reading active dimension style setting from the element template or the tool settings. According to MicroStation the Active Setting is set by the dimension st...

Allow users to see horizontal and vertical alignments while in view only mode.

Wise users open files in read-only mode when they don’t intend to change the file. ORD should promote good file practice to allow us to view geometry when we are in view only mode.
