For the water supply project, in a situation where we have cast iron elements connected to the flange such as gate valves, hydrants, elbows, venturiers and plastic line pipes. There is no way to connect the two nodes directly through the flange. a...
Re-association of reference file bring back its intelligence
Needs an ability that if we re-associate any reference file back in our dgn, it should remember its previous relations made to that file. Example: We have a baseline referenced in a dgn and we have annotated its values, after de-attaching and re-a...
civil cell variables with expressions and variations
When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...
Say if I had pre-cast units (say rectangular for ease of the idea), you can see the coordinates of the 4 bottom corners (or other named points) of the pre-cast unit if I click on it. This would show up in model space view as shown: https://imgur.c...
Coupling between horizontal and vertical regrerssion lines
A very problematic area is the coupling between horizontal and vertical regression analysis. Generally speaking, one must create a horizontal regression line first, create regressed elements, couple them together in a complex geometry and then pro...
Equilateral turnouts as a separate element with its own geometry for both main and deviating track
Currently, in order to create en equilateral turnout, one needs to recreate one of the branches (with exact geometry) and then add the branch part. This process has a lot of inconsistencies and sometimes results in unexpected geometries ( transiti...
