Drawing layout from right to left - plan and profile.

Fundamental convention for technical drawing demands that the north arrow point to the top of the page. Often an alignment either provided by a client or already exiting will progress from right to left. This being said, when creating plan and pro...

import parcels, survey chains, lines, curves, spirals from GPK

Since GEOPAK is no longer supported. I have heard from Bentley time and time again that we can get to our data out of the GPK and import it into ORD. BUT this is only true for chains, profiles and points. What about Parcels? survey chains? lines? ...

Show the Link Size within the Link Summary Tab

The window that pops up after a hydraulic model run for design or analysis includes a "Calculation Detailed Summary". The Link Summary tab does not currently show the designed link size. Showing the link size in the Link Summary tab will allow the...

Enhancement to Auto Update Field Codes on Point Features when Field Code on Linear Feature is Updated

If a user changes a linear feature code, the expectation would be to also see the feature codes on the points that make up that linear feature change accordingly (if the linear feature was dependent on these points features and the appropriate lin...

Update Extract from Graphic Order of Settings

In the Extract from Graphic tool, the conduit feature definition needs to be set prior to the node feature definition to pull the appropriate corresponding nodes from the workspace. Could the conduit feature definition settings be listed above the...

Automate Node labelling in Cross Section drawings

We need to be able to label nodes in cross sections drawings automatically. At the moment, this can only be done one node at a time, unlike conduits, which can be labeled automatically.

List Points in Numerical Order When Generating Horizontal Point Report

Currently when generating a Horizontal point report, ORD does not list the points in numerical order. Say we have the points P1 through to P100, they should not be listed as P1, P10, P11, P12......P19, P2, P21 etc. seems it sorts by alphabetical o...

Add "Arc Length Chorded" to arc properties so it can be annotated in plan

Currently there is no way to annotate the chorded length for arcs that are Chord definition. Adding a new property named "Arc Length Chorded" would allow this.

Allow different levels for different conduit sizes in the same catalogue.

For Conduits, on our 2D plans, we show a different linestyle for each size of pipe. In InRoads, we would enable centerline display using these different linestyles. This linestyle is a wide dashed line with solid edge lines. We cannot replicate th...

Make editing catchment areas more user friendly

When you initially create a drainage area from a shape, it creates 'smart' vertices that you can grab and move with the cursor. However, after the initial catchment shape is created, the only way to add additional vertices is using the "Insert Ver...
