End Area Earthwork Corrections for Curvature

End Area Volumes are still a contractual requirement on projects. We need a tool to correct the earthwork calculations around curves like the GEOPAK “Centroid Adjustment” tool that did that correction and provided a summary of the centroid locatio...

Driveway Profile Sheet Creation Tool

For our DOT, we need to show profiles for driveways. Since they are not large, it is expected to have 4 or more to a single sheet. In the current workflow, creating the drawing models and moving the drawing models to sheets to make this work is ti...

Split Cross Sections if Elements in Model Extend Outside of Default Width.

Currently our DOT requires that if ROW lines (or any element in the corridor) are outside the width of the default XS width, the user needs to create an extension or split the XS's to be able to show all design elements and ROW labels. Currently t...

Stacked Cross Section easier workflow

Create a better workflow for stacked cross sections. No need for complex seeds and dgnlibs. Just choose if we want to stack everything in a drawing model or in a sheet, how many rows and columns and hit enter.Maybe define the offsets and get a pre...

Improve drawing annotation management

Sometimes we apply more than one drawing annotation to the same model. It would be good to have a model manager view with all the applied annotations group so that we can disable, remove or add. That way we could select what we want to remove inst...

3D cut-in profile to carry the same line symbology present in the XS named boundaries

User expecting to be 3D cut should mimic the display style of the 3D view. Currently, the limitation is that a cross-section in ORD can only be cut between two lines, and not along a complex element. It should go inside the display style and let y...

Model Curves with Radius in OBM

Currently 3D elements that are curved are rendered with a series of line segments. While this might be okay for some applications, it makes the 3D model very unhelpful for plans production (i.e. you cannot dimension radii of curves). We need the c...

Drawing Model Optional

Creation of the drawing Model is Optional in sheet production in MicroStation. I believe this should be true for civil Plan as well. We should be able to create a drawing seed that does not have the option ON for creating drawing. Most of the Plan...

Switch Height Plan

Our industry requires to provide accurate horizontal alignment's annotation which shows element's length between turnouts (not only length of whole plan elements). This is what could be done by "Switch Height Plan" tool in Power Rail Track (PRT). ...
