Configuration variable to control default path for .tiw files
When working in a fieldbook in survey, we want to set the default file path to a specific location for .tiw files. As it stands, ORD remembers the last location from which a .tiw was imported, but we want to set a file path for all users.
Updating XS annotation group w/o resetting annotation placement
The XS annotation group will place annotations in text conflicting locations. Once the user resolves the text conflicts there is a chance that the annotations may have to be revised when the model is updated. Therefore, it would be helpful if ther...
Have the ability to create Civil labeler with a null Target. This will give user the ability to create label for features/lines to use from one tool and one source. Further enhancement would be able use an expression that would change the label(ca...
Would be nice to have an option to run an 'drawing model annotation' for specific models rather than just all or one. This could be helpful for cross section annotation if we want to use different annotation groups for different ranges of the cros...
When exporting to the IFC, keep a different identification for each item.
When exporting the IFC, each element is identified by a default value. For example, all solids come out with an identification as smartsolid. This makes it very difficult to search for an element in the model.
When creating a new point in a Survey field book using the “New Point” command, allow an option to hand-enter the coordinates.
When using the “New Point” command for a survey point, the user must screen-pick the coordinates. There are times when it would be extremely useful to hand-enter the Northing, Easting, Elevation.
Ability to switch the priority of other end conditions within the end condition editor as an override.
Currently there is no way to use end condition exceptions and as an override switch between other end conditions within a certain station range. A simple addition to the override feature where you could temporarily change the priorities of the end...
"Terrain Substitute” command that would swap all links from one Terrain to another, and also swap Parent Terrains for Surface Templates ( without breaking rules/relationships).
Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes
Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...
The name of the nodes are defined at placement by the selected Feature Definition. It's common for it to be changed during the design process. For these cases, all altered nodes must be manually renamed. This usually is done through selection or u...
