Support spaces for bearing input in geometry tools

The geometry tools should allow for spaces between degrees minutes and seconds (N78 34 22E). This format is supported in the Geometry Builder but not the other geometry tools and the inconsistence is frustrating. Currently you have to enter either...

Merge and separate geometry with dependencies from and into multiple DGNs

When you have multiple files with geometry which reference each other, I think there should be a tool to allow you to merge those DGN's into one without losing relationships e.g. I can merge my main alignment file and the file which contains my ch...

rotate cells placed by field book

We need to be able to manually rotate survey cells in a 3D file. Yes, I understand there are macros to automate this. But simply put, we should be able to use the microstation rotate command and have the cell respond.

At Linear Template corner, give option for PI or radius

When creating a liner template in a 90° corner or similar, the software would create an external tanget drop and not a rounded or chamfer one. See image attached, red flags what the result I want.

Restore tool Delete Triangle by Line - Edit Terrain - back to its original function of not being able to cross breaklines or add a dialog box for the option.

In SS4 on up to ORD 10.10.2, you could not delete a triangle on the interior side of a breakline. When a line was drawn, all triangles would be deleted until it got to the breakline. In ORD 10.12, it blows through the breakline and will delete int...

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...
