I need to create a quick profile that can be graphically manipulated BEFORE I create a corridor or do any detailed design.

The Bentley training videos all create a corridor and cross sections before a profile is created that can be edited. I need a profile of the existing ground BEFORE I do any detailed vertical profile design. That way I can see if it works visually ...

Civil Labeler from Corridor - Maintain Label when corridor feature definition changes

Right now, if we set a corridor feature definition to "Top Mesh" only display and then label that mesh with civil labeler, the label will break if we change the corridor feature definition again. This makes it hard to use the civil labeler with a ...

The ability to edit the positioning and placement of a dimension.

Once a dimension is placed, it seems to be set. The ability to place a dimension and then later be able to adjust it would be tremendous. Not only the ability to adjust the placement of the dimension, but the ability to adjust the placement of the...

Use GAGE instead of Center of Railhead for Template Placement when Creating Rails

Need access to all element properties in the Reports Tool

Add ability to update Element Templates that are already tied to Feature Symbologies

If you have Element Templates (ET) separate from your Feature Definitions / Feature Symbologies, ORD will make a local copy of an ET if it is used in a Feature Symbology. If that ET is updated, you must delete the ET and copy in the updated versio...

Include common support structure types used in the UK

It would be good to add to the OBM library, for example standard abutments types used in the UK that are not integral and need an abutment gallery to align with the CIRIA C543 Bridge detailing guide.

Create Top and Bottom Meshes for Surface Templates

Currently ORD will create a top mesh and bottom mesh when a template is assigned to a corridor. However, when a template is assigned to a design non-corridor terrain, no top or bottom meshes are created. Doing so would be very useful for viewing o...

Put the DEPTH point type back in the survey import

In InRoads there was an option to import data as depths instead of elevations. This is common practice for hydrographic data, as many dedicated programs have positive elevations being below 0, with elevations above as negatives. ASCII files can be...

Auto-increment point names/numbers

Some users need to be able to assign unique point numbers. So, when creating a new point, the user should be able to type in a starting point name/number (with or without a prefix) and once they place that point, it should automatically auto-fill ...
