civil cell variables with expressions and variations

When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...

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.

Create Cross Section using Referenced Named Boundaries

I would like to be able to create cross section by referencing other cross section named boundaries, similar to plan named boundary functionality.

Channels Attach to other nodes besides headwall

If ditches do become channel features, KYTC would need channels to then be able to attach to other node types besides headwalls since we have many conditions and locations where they outlet into inlets of various types.

Ditches be channel features

It would be wonderful if ditches were channel features so that they could be treated as surface features like gutters are to get head on inlet.

Custom Grate Spacing and Sizes

It would be amazing if we could utilize our own grate spacing for calculating the head on inlets. KYTC has several grates that don't quite match with what is in the delivered system, and this may affect the depth of the head on the inlet.

Dynamic Cross Section View - Retain User Settings

Users often make changes to the different fit options in the Dynamic XS view that are not persisted when the file is closed or a section via datapoint is issued (Fit Section / Center Backbone / Center on Current Offsets). It defaults back to the F...

Element Templates Point to Multiple Cells

At KYTC we like to show the vaults of drainage structures, in order to do that S&S drew them for us. ORD does that in 3D, however, we turn the 3D off when producing plans. It would help in the case that we could point to two cells (one that ma...

ORD Drainage - Show actual Tc versus Tc Minimum

Many times a calculated Time of Concentration is less than the minimum used for Intensity. When this occurs in a system of drainage areas (catchments), it helps a designer AND a reviewer to see what the actual Time of Concentration is at a given p...
