PINNED Add measuring/pick distance tool in parametric solid and variables tools
As a MicroStation modelling user, I would like the capability of filling the Distance field by picking two points (or distance between other elements) from within the tool, so that I can be much quicker in creating solids and other elements where ...

Do not delete constraints automatically - rather show which one cause problems

If you are using parametric modelling sometimes you run into situations where MS gives you: "One or more constraint has been removed." in the message center.First of all: It just shows as a small warning in the message center. That is not enough. ...

Pseudo - Parametric/Shared Cell Option

Parametric cells are great, shared cells are great using them in practice isn't so great.Parametric cells are stuck on the level, color, line weight and any other attribute associated with the "shared" cell within the file. So to save file space i...

Adding Threads to Holes, Cylinders, Revolved Solids, Etc.

In previous versions of MicroStation (as it appears in the help files), there was once an option to "Add Threads" to a feature hole. This option seems to have been removed or depreciated in the CONNECT version. My suggestion is to add this option ...

Enable/Disable Feature with True/False Variable

I see the enable toggle under feature properties but it would be much more powerful if you could tie it to a variable and let a true/false variable define it's state. This would allow users to turn many features on or off based on a single variable.

fix dimensions so they do not lose association so easily

I get so tired of dimensioning a 3d drawing then find out I have to alter the model and the dimension associations are lost.I can understand if there is a modification along a vertex, but not if it's on a different face.There has to be a way to av...

Data Cleanup of parametric solids

When deleting a feature the profile and some of the constraints can remain cleaning up this leftover data seems to be difficult and in some cases not possible. There should be an option under the compress menu or maybe data cleanup to remove any c...

Mirror/Rotate Feature "by points"

When using the rotate/mirror feature tools (and possibly others) the options list is about the: Design XYZ, View XYZ and Accudraw/ACS XYZ. Feels like all the classic and legacy mirror/rotate/revolve etc. all allow you to do so by points and you ca...

Manipulate/Delete Multiple features at once

It's great that i can delete holes now but if i need to delete 20 holes frankly its faster to just start over in some cases. I know i can "delete above" but sometimes that's not easy to do in a long property tree. It would be great if i could hold...

GLTF import

Import GLTF 3D format. glTF (derivative short form of Graphics Language Transmission Format or GL Transmission Format) is a standard file format for three-dimensional scenes and models. A glTF file uses one of two possible file extensions: .gltf (...

Fence Stretch Option to NOT add nodes to properties

Fence stretching smart solids was common place in v8i, but the tool is clumsy at best with parametric solids it adds un-wanted nodes and clutters up the properties menu. I imagine some users like myself would prefer it just stretch the underlying ...
