Enhancing Named Boundaries: Updating Named Boundaries and Applying Geometry Rules

To enhance productivity and efficiency in live projects, we need dynamic Named Boundaries linked to Geometry. This includes the ability to update the shape or location of a named boundary after creating a sheet model, with the changes reflected in...

Skewed template drop ends

Would be nice to be able to skew the end of a template range to match up with bridge abutments, cross roads, or other critical features, similar to how the geometry in OpenBridge can be skewed. This would allow cleaner corridor start and end geome...

Add Multi-Units to a corridor with assigning a tunnel template

It would increase the efficiency having such a tool in OpenTunnel Designer. It would allow to store the tunnel template names in an xml / xlsx file to import these settings in a bulk - and not just assign the templates between every two reference ...

GEOPAK Drainage gave you inlet calcs after you placed an inlet and assigned a catchment without having to run a scenario. We need this functionality in ORD

In Geopak Drainage, once you place a node and attached a catchment, you were able to see inlet calculations. This let the user know if they needed to shift the box to have an allowable spread. It would be great if we could get that feedback withou...

Start & End Item Type Expression for Extents

There should be an item type expression available that can provide the station to station extents of an element. Currently Bentley provides expressions for begin and end Station that correspond to the stationing at the beginning and end of the ele...

OpenRoads/Flow Masters Calculation and Annotation

PowerInroads used to have a built in calculator/analyzer. It helped us to quickly calculate the drainage pipe information, minimum slope and velocity at full value etc. Currently to get the data, we use Flow Masters and manually calculate each pip...

Generate Geometry Points with Deed Boundary Tool

RIght of Way take tables are required with named points. The normal workflow is to create points then origin point persist snap those elements creating the shape of the deed boundary to the points. In this way the legal reports show the point name...

Need to be able to read the GEOPAK Drainage binary file and export to a spreadsheet – without having GEOPAK installed or running

Geopak is no longer supported by Bentley. At some point, Geopak will not be installed on our machines, but we may need to get the calculations that reside in the GDF file. We need a method that will allow us to extract the information we need from...

A tool to identify the actual XY coordinate location of a high or Low Point on a terrain

Currently we can Analyze Element to obtain the range high and range low for XYZ of a terrain, but that XY value does not reflect the coordinate of the actual range high/low Z, it just gives the highest/lowest XY in terms of the coordinate number. ...

Set Profile Named Boundary Vertical Range

When creating a profile Named Boundary, there is no option to set a starting or stopping elevation, or an elevation range. It's a bit of a black box how that is determined by the software, and we need more control. It's entirely possible to create...
