Adding a Description Column to Parametric Constraint

While it is easy for users to idenfity the purpose of creating a particular Point Control, there is a lack of visibility over the purpose of a Parametric Constraint. Adding a Description entry will make it easier for users to identify the purpose ...

Skewed template drop ends

Would be nice to be able to skew the end of a template range to match up with bridge abutments, cross roads, or other critical features, similar to how the geometry in OpenBridge can be skewed. This would allow cleaner corridor start and end geome...

GEOPAK Drainage gave you inlet calcs after you placed an inlet and assigned a catchment without having to run a scenario. We need this functionality in ORD

In Geopak Drainage, once you place a node and attached a catchment, you were able to see inlet calculations. This let the user know if they needed to shift the box to have an allowable spread. It would be great if we could get that feedback withou...

Copy Civil Labels as Fully Functional Civil Objects

Why it’s useful: In plan production, users routinely need to apply the same civil label repeatedly or fix a missed label by copying one nearby. Today, civil labels cannot be copied at all, forcing users to reopen the Civil Labeler, re‑navigate the...

Start & End Item Type Expression for Extents

There should be an item type expression available that can provide the station to station extents of an element. Currently Bentley provides expressions for begin and end Station that correspond to the stationing at the beginning and end of the ele...

Add ability to use manually drawn pier cap templates extruded up/down station

OBM is limited in the cap shapes it can accommodate currently. It would be very helpful if we had the ability to draw cap shapes in the front elevation view and use those as templates, which OBM extrudes in the up/downstation direction. We would l...

Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain

Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...

Need to be able to read the GEOPAK Drainage binary file and export to a spreadsheet – without having GEOPAK installed or running

Geopak is no longer supported by Bentley. At some point, Geopak will not be installed on our machines, but we may need to get the calculations that reside in the GDF file. We need a method that will allow us to extract the information we need from...

OpenRoads/Flow Masters Calculation and Annotation

PowerInroads used to have a built in calculator/analyzer. It helped us to quickly calculate the drainage pipe information, minimum slope and velocity at full value etc. Currently to get the data, we use Flow Masters and manually calculate each pip...

Secondary Alignment End Condition Tie-ins

I’d like to propose an enhancement to how end conditions are resolved when secondary alignments are in use. Currently, when a secondary alignment is applied, end condition tie-in points are only solved at corridor intervals and linearly interpolat...
