Bring back "Create Geometry by Template" command

In the first versions of OpenRoads we had the tool "Create Geometry by Template" which would create ruled geometry from a template . Fast way to for lay out geometry for a project. Not sure why it went away.

Add Point Projection Interval Option to "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool

Currently when using the "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool, ORD seems to only project a point at every vertex of a 3D line string. This is fine when using the Geometry Tools to create 3D line strings since it creates a vertex point in 3D based o...

Clipping export of 3D models using Named Boundaries to separate dgns

When exporting a model to IFC it is possible to export the model splitting to Named Boundary Groups. This is very powerfull because you can split your model and the volume reports in smaller parts. It would also be good if you can split the dgn to...

Contour Edit Mode

It would be useful to allow editing of contours after a terrain model is created. Call it "Contour Edit Mode" and allow users to massage contours in areas and preserve these edits similar to how ORD now remembers triangle edits in 10.12.

Civil Cell dgnlib - Sort by name rather than date created

Currently Civil Cells are sorted by date created rather than by name when loaded from a dgnlib. This makes it very difficult to sort these. Oddly, when they are within a file (where the civil cell is "living") they sort by name.

Project point elements to nearest XCs

A tool that projects point elements (drainage nodes, boreholes, signs, ...) to the nearest XCs. This could work using named groups just like the new shipped funcion: https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-1208?utm_source=idea_comment_ma...

Add WorkSet-wide project components to Explorer

It would be extremely useful to be able to have a list of all the project components in a WorkSet easily accessible from the explorer, regardless of what dgn you are in. Exactly like the sheet index tool but for terrain models, alignments, corrido...

Add the overall Spiral PI station and Northing and Easting to all the Horizonal Alignment reports in CivilGeometry..

When comping existing alignments, we have a need to match the overall Spiral PI data. Adding this to the Report would make the workflow easier.

Use Annotation Groups to add Hatching / Pattern elements and Dimension Elements

We have several sheets where we want certain lines that have specific feature definitions to have a dimension on the plans. We also have several shapes that we always want to show hatching or patterns appearing on the plans. Right now we have to m...
