Show Projected 3D Cuts when using the Project Run Tool

If we project the profile runs to centerline, we lose the ability to show the utility crossings generated by the 3D cut at the pipe centerline. We can add a 3D cut at the road centerline, but often the crossing utilities are not in the same locati...

Use parametric cells for creation and management of sign structures and sign bridges

This would be very similar to the way that OBM creates and manages bents, columns, footings, etc. This would allow for more rapid population of custom vertical sign items in our 3D design environments. By this I mean items of different sizes, span...

"View Readable" annotations respects view rotation or ACS

The "Text View Readable" option for Civil Laballer a nd Annotation Manager/groups respects only the model Active Angle. Refer to my case CS0042880 for more info. It should be a dynamic function that always respect the view, so no matter from which...

Add The Ability to use a Fence and Regular MicroStation Shapes as a Boundary When Using The "Analyze Volume" Tool

Currently, the "Analyze Volume" tool "Only" allows you to use an ORD Geometry Shape for a boundary. It would be much more useful and intuitive if we could also use a fence and/or a regular MicroStation shape for a boundary as well like you could w...

Ability to modify 'Rational Method Frequency Adjustment Factor' for a specific catchment or range of catchments.

Currently there is only an option to add Rational Method Frequency Adjustment Factors for the entire storm, which affects all catchments. Our GDOT standards require modification of the factor for only C values less than 0.6.

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..

Ability to edit Annotation Groups in any model

It's a little cumbersome to keep going back and forth between models when developing annotation groups. An alternative could be to be able to select the geometry that is shown as the example when in the annotation group manager.

Feature Definition Removal Tool

When remapping feature definitions to an upgraded workspace the old workspace's feature definitions that are no long used remain in the DGN standards and available for use. This is a problem as the users made select them not know that the feat def...

Annotate Profile Sag and Crest in Horizontal Geometry

We have the ability to annotate Profile sag and crest using a cell in the Horizontal geometry. What is not possible is if we have a sag negative-negative or Crest Positive-positive. As Demonstrated in the images.

Report Station Equations in Horizontal Alignment report similar to GeoPAK

Horizontal geometry reports are confusing when there are station equations at cardinal points. A few of our surveyors have commented on this and I can see where they’re coming from. I’ve attached three example geometry reports. Their names ind...
