Constraints: 2d Distance Alignment Options

Mstn's 2d Distance Constraint tool offers two Alignment options: True and Drawing. It would be great if the Drawing drop down option could be replaced by XY, XZ, YZ options. This would provide better control and remove uncertainty when generating ...

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...

Better parametric array options

Right now it is quite limited. Arraying objects along path especially should enable: -orientation lock to vertical or custom direction (for example: railing posts along 3d curves should remain vertical) -arraying along path should enable planar ro...

Place Again parametric cell instance

As a MicroStation user, I would like to be able to right-click on a parametric cell and select a "Place Again" option that will open the Place Parametric Cell dialog with the same cell selected and the same variation and settings as per the select...

Expand new Propagate Item Types to Mesh/Solid Creation & Manipulation tools

Many users regularly use the Mesh creation tools like Mesh from Element to convert elements like Shapes, Solids, etc. to mesh objects or Convert to Solid to do this with solids. Especially for BIM and Civil modeling workflows, one challenge is whe...

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. ...

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...

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.

Parametric cells - Hosting elements on Planes and CoordinateSystems - new constraint types

Currently it is very difficult to control the angle of 3D elements with relation to a specific plane, and the 3D Angle constraint in particular lacks the ability to be able to adjust the angle between elements in the way that we want to it to. I t...
