Copy named boundary from another file

The ability to copy plan drawings from a different file to have the same boundaries for different disciplines and you are able to edit named boundaries in each separate discipline. In summary the named boundaries start the same but they are indepe...

Snap control for 3d cut profile attachment

We need a snap setting to be active by default for self-attached attachments created by 3d cuts in profiles. Currently, the snap setting is set to off by default, which forces us to always turn it on manually in the attachments dialog, which is an...

Use Tabs to Separate Items for Each Design Element in ORD Drainage

It is cumbersome to have to scroll through several pages of information to design and review drainage elements. KYTC would like to see tabs used, similar to those used in InRoads S & S. Each element (storm sewers, strom sewer inlets, drainage ...

Surface Template - "Process Corridor" similar tool

Just add the function to process the template again so it can be updated. This is a major issue when using surface templates with clipping boundaries. If I change the clipping boundary (a simple shape on the 2D model), I have to delete and reapply...

Allow Annotation Groups to use "Place Text Along" from MicroStation

For a plan annotation group, the ability for annotation text on arcs/curves and spirals/transitions to be placed to follow the geometry centreline curvature. The present options only allow the text to be placed as a tangential/perpendicular straig...

Create 3D by slope to target tool alse creates 2D geometry

This tool should work similar to a linear template. It should respect the "Create Template Geometry" option from the feature definition and generate the 2D geometry, not just the 3D one.

Report Station Equations in Horizontal Alignment report similar to GeoPAK

Horizontal geometry reports are confusing when there are station equations at cardinal points. A few of our surveyors have commented on this and I can see where they’re coming from. I’ve attached three example geometry reports. Their names ind...

Create 3D Automatically should inherit elevations from civil points if you draw a civil line and snap to the points

For detail grade areas it would be nice to place points in plan view and snap lines to those points. The lines would have annotation groups assigned to them to label the slope and distance between the points. Grades could then easily be tweaked by...

get quick slope measurement from dynamic cross section based off alignment (not corridor!)

I know if you open dynamic cross sections based off a corridor you can place temporary dimensions. but if you open a dynamic cross section based off the alignment you cannot place temporary dimension lines. I need an easy way to get what slope a g...

Edit Civil Labels

It is cumbersome to delete Civil Labels and place new ones when a simple change is required. Similar to how Geopak Plan View Labeler worked, it would be ideal if you could edit a previously placed Civil Label. Also being able to match a Civil Labe...
