Reverse direction of an existing complex element

A tool to reverse the direction of an existing complex element. There is a workaround by complexing the complex element but not an ideal solution.

Replace or swap master survey terrain without losing links or relationships

Replace or swap master survey terrain without losing links or relationships to design elements or other corridors, DGNs etc. I use a complex terrain to achieve this now, it would be nice to have another option

Non automatic update of cant values in cant table

This comment is coupled with another idea I had regarding selective update of annotations. Again the problem stems directly from the dynamic nature of ORD. Usually the process to create a cant for an alignment goes as follows: -Creation of speed t...

Coupling between horizontal and vertical regrerssion lines

A very problematic area is the coupling between horizontal and vertical regression analysis. Generally speaking, one must create a horizontal regression line first, create regressed elements, couple them together in a complex geometry and then pro...

GenerativeComponents - Feature Definition tool Node

Special Node/Option for Full recognition (reading civil information) and creation of Feature Definitions in GenerativeComponents. GC & Civil Packages would benefit greatly if we could automate the creation of Civil Lines (2D/3D) for subsequen...

Provide Low Point/High Point Information in Profile Table Editor

Lost functionality that was available in Geopak. Helpful to meet specific locations when designing a profile, instead of storing the profile and reading the profile report, or hand calculation of the low and high points.

Implement a SWITCH/CASE function for item type expressions.

A SWITCH/CASE function would be easier to use than having to nest multiple IF functions.

Place Template from template library in a drawing

We create typical cross sections as part of our plan set. I've seen guidance from Bentley on how to use different parts of the 3D corridor model to cut cross sections in specific places and then use those cross sections as the typical cross sectio...

Add option to create Mass Haul Diagram from End Area Volumes.

Currently the Mass Haul Diagram volumes are generated from 3D mesh volumes and the End Area Volumes report calculates the volumes from the cross section areas. Hence there is a difference between the Mass Ordinate values between the two reports. I...

Feature Lines Similar to Civil 3D

It would be nice to be able to graphically change elevation and slope of an element similar to feature lines in Civil 3D. Made it really quick to create break lines and grade areas without have to go into a profile view and create a vertical profi...
