ACS: ACS by Element Update

Transfered from EAP Ideas listDefine ACS by Element should recognise or infer a bit more: Cylinders: hovering over a cylinder should offer the option to align z with the axis or extrusion path. At the moment, hovering on the 'caped surface' disc a...

Apply Clip Volume tool - SmartSolids

The Apply Clip Volume tool recognises Solids and closed elements like Shapes.Could the ACV tool be enhanced to allow it to recognise planar faces of SmartSolids and other 'difficult' elements like ABD's TF Forms and Meshes.This would make it a lot...

View independent lock only X, Y or Z

Hi!View independent is an amazing tool, but! It would be even more amazing to be able to lock the independecy to either X, Y or Z.For example:I would like to put trees that look the same from all angles but that are only a 2D representation of tha...

Parametric Solids Quantification Fix

Mstn was pioneering in providing solid modeling to the AEC market. But the Parasolids kernel has its origins in the MCAD world. Reporting volumes and areas is great, but in the AEC world, we need to be able to able to break things down further. Fo...

Parametric association for arraying along a path

It would be cool to have a tool that would allow us to array along a path (smartline, bspline, etc.) and then update as we change the path. For instance, I can extrude a profile along a path and then modify that path and not have to rerun the extr...

Add "No Stitch" option to Bridge Mesh & Merge Edge tools

I would prefer the stitching aspect of these tools be optional.I often just want to close a gap between two meshes without actually stitching them together.

ProStructures tools for Precast Concrete Modelling

What about making possible to generate precast columns and beams? Another great ideia is to do a connection center for generating the corbels, cuts etc for precast elements too, just like steel ones. The Precast library elements could use the new ...

Dual Purpose Placement Points as Snap Points

In the past, I have often created cells where most of the cell's geometry was set to NO SNAP, save for a few points (literally), that were intended to serve as key snap points. These SNAP POINTS were the only elements in the model having their sna...

Screen Menus - Quick viewing and extraction of Cells in Dgn

It would very very very useful to be able to generate SMs and automatically assign hyperlinks to the Cells visible. The hyperlinks would include ElementIDs or similar to allow the user to extract and place the Cell in the active model. https://com...

Modify Solids - By Face - to Imaginary Line, Shape/Face, Plane by 3 Points w/ Offset

The Modify Solids tool will be increasing used as more and more needs to be modeled in 3d first for BIM purposes. It would be very very useful to add a few more options in addition to distance. See OpenBuildings Designer's Extend Linear Form tool....
