Ability to Place a Conduit/Pipe "Without" a Node

Many times, we have conduits/pipes that simply daylight a surface and drain on to the ground or into a pond. Please add the ability to place conduit/pipes "Without" the need of a Node. I understand that we can create a sort of null point/node that...

Enable 3D annotation from 2D annotation

It would be advantageous to be able to link 3D annotation to 2D annotation. In order to be able to create stationing as 3D text on an alignment in a 3D model, you currently need to do it manually. It would be desirable if you could link a 2D anno...

Automatic Dimension Masking

Need to have the ability for dimension lines that cross other dimension lines be automatically masked. This has traditionally been done by adjusting extension lines, but with associative dimensions, this is not feasible. The order of dimension pla...

Option to include a sign edge/outline when importing into DGN files

When using the SignCAD to DGN utility, the sign panel outline is obscured when the signs contain a single white border with no indentation and the fill setting enabled. To work around this, our sign designers must add an outline/no-fill shape to t...

Ability to append, join, or combine individual alignments and have it hold the sub alignment stationing, which would create station equations

In Geopak, we had the ability to take individual alignments and create an overall alignment from a subset of alignments and it would hold the individual stationing for each alignment, creating station equations. There is no way to do this in ORD u...

Need Named Boundaries or Multi-Point Cross Sections that can turn for secondary alignments

Currently, when secondary alignments are used, the cross sections are always based perpendicular to the primary alignment. We need the ability for named boundaries (or some other means of creating multi-point cross sections) to understand when sec...

Drainage Annotation rotation based on sheet view rotation

Currently, the only rotation options for drainage annotation is constant. With alignments that are curving, our sheets must change rotation. It would save a lot of time spent manually adjusting rotation on each sheet.

End Area Earthwork Corrections for Curvature

End Area Volumes are still a contractual requirement on projects. We need a tool to correct the earthwork calculations around curves like the GEOPAK “Centroid Adjustment” tool that did that correction and provided a summary of the centroid locatio...
