Specific model option for annotation

Would be nice to have an option to run an 'drawing model annotation' for specific models rather than just all or one. This could be helpful for cross section annotation if we want to use different annotation groups for different ranges of the cros...

Update Element Information Description - ORD

Geometry>Standards>Set Element Information This tool seems to lend itself to recording and reviewing an alignment layout and design process and having it live in the dgn file vs an auxillary notepad or spreadsheet. As the design progresses i...

Add a smooth/roughened interface parameter in LEAP Concrete

Currently, LEAP Concrete reports required interface shear reinforcement values for both a smooth and a roughened condition. It also flags a design as not passing if either minimum is not met. If I know I have a roughened girder, I should be able t...

Re-word the Upgrade dialog to include that the file will also be 'aligned' to the product.

There are several ways a file can be opened though local access, networking, and ProjectWise. There is very minimal documentation available to explain to users the difference between Upgrading and Aligning a file. Not to mention how, when, and why...

Create a rule to set drainage node to (active terrain) when setting elevation reference

Presently when setting reference elevation for the node it lets you set it to the active terrain but does not rule it to the (active terrain). If this were done the inlet tops would automatically adjust as the design terrain changes.

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Live Element Annotation in Drawing Models via Annotation Groups

There can be a lot of instances on a project where a detail in a section is not practical to model 3D, and the user feels compelled draw the element live in the drawing model. It would be great to capture live elements with annotation groups, as t...

Survey Media Files

Currently Survey Media files can only be viewed in the dgn file with the fieldbook. Can we get an enhancement to view photos when the survey fieldbook file is referenced to another file.

Export Geometry XML from Read Only File

We have many users on the survey side that need to quickly jump in a design file and export out an alignment xml for staking. Non-Roadway users do not have write access to these files and the export geometry tool cannot be used in a read only file...

Bring back Active Chain Control or Similar Tool

In GeoPak, the Active Chain Control tool was very useful for selecting a particular chain or alignment and having the location information (station, offset, etc.) be display in a dialogue box. The location information would live track with the loc...
