Element Templates Point to Multiple Cells

At KYTC we like to show the vaults of drainage structures, in order to do that S&S drew them for us. ORD does that in 3D, however, we turn the 3D off when producing plans. It would help in the case that we could point to two cells (one that ma...

Profile Annotation Groups

A lot of our project show multiple profiles in one profile view (EG, Proposed PGL, RT Gutter, LT Gutter, etc.). In MicroStation we set up a specific .ddb file that would plot the text labels in the desired location. We haven’t been successful in c...

DU RIM Elevation calculated from Ground Elevation offset

The RIM Elevation is a stagnant number once you enter an elevation it does not update in relation to any surface changes. RIM Elevation would be better suited for use if it can be defined with an offset. Another field would be needed: RIM Depressi...

Allow spread sections to be read directly from a terrain model or Corridor Model

Geopak Drainage could read a TIN file to establish the cross slopes for spread. This functionality should still existing in Drainage and Utilities by reading corridor models and terrain models. Users should be allowed to define an infinite number ...

Simplfy the Interface - How many "sizes" can there be?

Object Properties - Feature Definition of a pipe is top level, its description is a pick list of diameters (TxDOT), but Utilities Properties has three different locations. This complexity is unnecessary.

If no Design Lenghts in Catalog - Ignore or Set Design Inlet Openings to false

I do not see a place to force in a Inlet Catalog to set "Design Inlet Opening" to false, so I would like the software to assume False if lenghts are NOT in the catalog.

Allow manual input of acre area when manually defining a catchments subareas

Currently when manually defining a catchments subareas we are only able to hard code in a percentage of the total drainage area instead of the acreage of that subarea (see attached file). This causes us to have to manually calculate the percentage...

DU: conduit wall thickness improvement

Follow up for my other idea BCI-I-494 (link https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-494). The feature was implemented, but it still missing some core functions. What it does now, is add the drop on a design scenario. If the setting is tu...

Allow multiple drainage node elevations to be simultaneously assigned to a terrain

It would be helpful if multiple drainage nodes could be assigned to a terrain in one step. This would solve a problem if someone deletes the proposed terrain that was used to initially layout the drainage system. Currently users have to update the...
