Dynamic Clip Volumes

Static clip volumes were a good addition in their day, but we desperately need to move forward and come up with a more dynamic option to clip a model, and be able to do this in a 3D volume rather than cutting 2D planes. See image as an example fro...

Reality mesh send to back

Need option to place reality mesh as background and ignore depth so all lines are on top of mesh. This is needed for digitizing meshes as when vector is on same plane it may become invisible and sink into mesh. There is option in iTwins web viewer...

Crop surface tool

Add option to trim/cut surface tool to actually cut surface/shape and not create two surfaces by cut. Similar as region tool allows in 2D to keep intersection between two shapes but in 3D. Also keep shape elements as shape and don't convert to fan...

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. ...
