Import 3D surface(Bing?,Google?)

As Google Earth API no longer provides import of 3D elevation then need an alternative to this tool. If Bing doesn't provide this then maybe use similar service as in Conceptstation. Microstation being 3D solution seems moving back to 2D if no suc...

Highlight used Variables "bold" Liken to used levels display

In the creation of parametric models I'm finding that some times I create variables that are not necessary or the need for their existence goes away. It's difficult to sort out which variables are actually being used and which variables are just f...

Draw/Imprint on Solid to Surface of Solid

I find it very confusing that when using the Draw/Imprint on Solid tool I have to constrain the profile of my imprint to the surface I'm trying to attach it tooin 3 axis. X &Y relative to profile normal makeI understand but I don't constrain Z...

ADD Density to element/Solid

Can we add an option to add a density to an element/solid so we can get its mass/weight. I know we can do this with Item Types but that will not allow us to report on itmass. We would need to export the model to excel and get excel to do the calcu...

Parametric Cells - Constraints for cell origin

Currently a cell can be placed by it's origin, however once placed it is fixed in it's location, and the origin point is not able to be updated with constraints. It would be great if we could constrain the origin to another element or apply parame...

Basic Terrain Modeling Tools

MS-I-8 has been given a 'Will not implement' category. No explaination why. It is worth noting that Revit has been making big strides here with its Toposolids. A lot of functionality is also available in Mstn but not chained together, resulting in...

Convert 3D mesh objects to 3D solids.

MicroStation should have Convert Mesh to Smooth Solid option. 3D meshes that completely enclose a volume, called watertight meshes, can be converted to 3D solids

2D/3D align reference files

The ability to align 2D/3D reference files to abstract angles. Especially for 3D where the current option to rotate is limiting when the angles are abstract on xy, xz & yz planes

Paramentric solids from planar profile

Adding the ability to select a 2D profile from a cell library for extrusion, extrusion along, revolution, helix. We have many profiles in cell libraries, in CE we must first insert cell, next orient to current position and last make solid. In old ...

Project Explorer: should list ACS in Models

Transfered from EAP Ideas listAs we start having to work more and more in 3d and in assembly:component mode, ACS information will become more and more mainstream.
