Improvements to Geometry Points

I think the geometry points tools could use some improvements. Specifically, the Equal Space Points tool. The equal space points tool should assign unique names to the points in the group instead of using the same name for all points. Geometry...

Allow for Densify Horizontal Value and the Densify Vertical Value fields unlocked in order to give more user control to corridor stroking

We need improved stroking control for corridors. Currently stroking for corridors is defined by configuration variables i.e. CIVIL_DEFAULT_CURVE_STROKING and CIVIL_DEFAULT_PROFILE_STROKING, for horizontal and vertical curves respectively, which ta...

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...

Inherit survey point name and code to regression point

When we import survey points into Survey and create a field book, we get the name and code for the point. However, if we want to use the survey points directly from the Field Book in Survey to use as regression points, we don't get the name and co...

ESRI ArcGIS import automatically handle unit conversions

We would like to see the ESRI ArcGIS import functionality enhanced to handle conversions on the fly without having to change the working units of the file. To provide context, we have a base DGN that has working and storage units for SVFT/SVIN. Th...

Draw railway scheme in the annotation

We need that when writing down the singular points of a railway deviation (P0, P1, P2 and P3), they are joined by straight lines P1 with P2 and P0 with P3. See attached image. In fact, the V8i version did represent the detour scheme. Thank you!

Drainage and Utilities to support non-drainage pressure pipes

Pressure pipes are essential components of many engineering systems, such as water supply, oil and gas transportation, and power generation. To design and manage these systems, engineers need features that can model the geometry and properties of ...

Existing cant annotation on profile OR any regression point information on profile

Existing cant annotation is often, if not always, required on profile drawing. Actually we must project rails onto the profile, create aliases, to extract level differences between existing rails whereas the information is fully available from reg...
