When exporting to the IFC, keep a different identification for each item.

When exporting the IFC, each element is identified by a default value. For example, all solids come out with an identification as smartsolid. This makes it very difficult to search for an element in the model.

Civil Preferences Location

For the OpenCivil products, it would be nice to have the civil preferences folders that are located under C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Bentley\OpenRoadsDesigner\<version>\prefs (both the civil and civil_commands folders) use the b...

Show location in plan while in profile

Currently you can use "analyze point" to see where you are at in the plan view while in a profile. I want the location line in plan to show up all the time while I am in a profile so I know where I am at.

Regression Points table Sorting

In the regression points table, there is no way to sort the regression points using stationing. It means that if points are not named so that you can order by the name, it becomes difficult to navigate and understand the table. Regression points b...

Setting Offsets in Profile Band

The labels for the ST, TS, CS, and SC points are in the lower part of the profile and are in offset with reference to the horizontal geometry band (as seen in the photo below wherein the radial offset is referenced from the geometry band). I think...

Allow flow arrow density adjustment similar to contour lines

All the current products anchor their surface data in triangles, and allow different types of visualizations to happen. For instance, you can choose to show major and minor contours as needed, and they do not change the way the triangles actually ...

Add "Make Active Profile" checkbox to all element profiles tools

Every command in the vertical group in the geometry tab should have a checkbox inside to automatically make it the active one. This way the user won't have to open the profile in a view and select it. Pretty simple and would save a lot of work..

Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...

Inherit survey point name and code to regression point

When we import survey points into Survey and create a field book, we get the name and code for the point. However, if we want to use the survey points directly from the Field Book in Survey to use as regression points, we don't get the name and co...
