Turnout in exportable file

It would be very useful to have a way of bringing geometry including turnouts between models i.e. as in the .alg files. Rather than having to use a dgn. With large alignment files, they are a lot more manageable/faster when split into smaller sect...

Import Geometry from Imodel

Add the ability to import/export geometry elements from an imodel into your file. Similar to land xml or gpk. Then you retain the ability to archive files without worrying about their civil schema.

One button downgrade and export

While we are in a transition phase between the old v8i to the ORD dgn files, we sometimes receive files in the wrong dgn format. The steps to downgrade to a v8i backwards compatible file involves too many steps and introduces units and coordinate ...

GIS Interoperability

I would like to see some of the tools from OpenCities, mainly the ability to read a geodata base, integrated into OpenRoads. Since Bentley Map was removed from the Select Series application and not added to the OpenRoads, we have very little GIS i...

Clipping export of 3D models using Named Boundaries to separate dgns

When exporting a model to IFC it is possible to export the model splitting to Named Boundary Groups. This is very powerfull because you can split your model and the volume reports in smaller parts. It would also be good if you can split the dgn to...

Ability to Export/Import Alignment With ALL Parts

Currently, the only way to export/import alignments appears to be using LandXML. Currently this does not appear to allow Exporting and Importing Event Points that are part of an Alignment. Since DGN's can be corrupted, there needs to be a method t...

Export DWG special mode for sheets and deliverables

ArchiCAD, Sketchup and Revit have a very nice workflow for creating DWG deliverables. Basically, the software merge all the viewports in the model like an array and then creates a viewport of each in the sheet. They also dumb down all the smart ci...
