Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...

Surface Template - "Process Corridor" similar tool

Just add the function to process the template again so it can be updated. This is a major issue when using surface templates with clipping boundaries. If I change the clipping boundary (a simple shape on the 2D model), I have to delete and reapply...

Land Use Areas from a Reference

It would be nice to extract Land Use Data from a reference file rather than requiring the Land Use Areas always be drawn in the main drainage design file. This would both cut down on clutter in the design file and also allow larger areas to be del...

Better Elevation Thematic Tool for terrains.

It's very hard and troublesome to create elevation countours for cut and fill or layer thickness. The legends values have to be updated by hand for each new terrain. And in the end, it`s actually just a Display Style applied to the terrain or the ...

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...

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...

Apply cut/fill annotation to surface templates

When creating a cut/fill End Area Volumes table on cross sections, the annotation does not work for surface templates. If there is no corridor in the cross section, it will not even place an EAV Table. The cut/fill EAV tool works and displays the ...

Annotate Height/Offset difference from Multiple Stratum in Cross Section

Currently, Drawing annotation for Cross Section is only available for Ground Z and (design) Z. If there are multiple stratum and terrain models, no direct option to annotate the height/offset difference from design to other stratum, or stratum (te...

Create KMZ files that allow geometry annotation on export.

This would allow annotation on Geometry to export to KMZ files. Currently you have to drop status on all text annotation on geometry to be able to see it in a KMZ file.

Reflect template for template drop

It would be very helpful if we could reflect a template while assigning it to a template drop. Templates currently can only be placed in the direction they were created, from template origin "out". This requires a duplication of templates, as sepa...
