User option for linear stroking when creating terrains while processing field data in 3d files.

It would be very useful to big back the user option for stroking linear elements when creating terrains. This was available in v8i and greatly enhanced our surface models. Right now there is a configuration variable but it can't be set by users. A...

Ability to Place Geometry Points that use Parametric Cells

I would like Geometry Points to support using parametric cells.

Transpose Element option to Create a Copy.

When using the Transpose tool, the software makes a copy of the element you are selecting to transpose, and that is the element that is reversed, leaving behind the original underneath. Most of the time I do not want a copy of the transposed eleme...

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...

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...
