Tool to cut terrain/mesh/surface with 2D shapes

We need something that can reliably create either a mesh that follows the terrain/mesh/surface like the stencil tool is supposed to do or one that can slice an existing mesh using 2D shapes draped onto it. We need to create a mesh with thickness t...

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. ...

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...

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...

Extrude profiles along multiple paths in one move

I would like to be able to extrude a series of profiles along a series of paths in one move. Imagine you have defined the paths, added the profiles to the end of the profiles and in one move extrude them along the paths. Currently this is a per pa...

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...

Bing maps -> More Options

Hello Bentley, The new addition of Bing Maps is great as well as being fast to load the tiles. Currently we have 4 options. But in future revisions would there be space for more granular options, similar to GIS options? Like turning off content we...
