Rebuild the Step import/export

Importing and exporting step files in microstation is hit or miss at best. For best results we have to import step files into autocad save them to dwg and then import the dwg into microstation. We also have better results exporting to dwg and then...

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 ...

CE - Adding 2 options to the tool "Set Element Elevation" to avoid "flattening" of 3d elements

Hi Microstation users, In a 3 D Model I want to move elements on the z-axis to real coordinates by using the tool "Set Element Elevation".By this way I can work faster and with less risk for errors as by the traditional way to use the move command...

Named presentation for cells in sections

Named presentations for cells should include an option for sections in any directions. For the moment it is limited to front/back/right/left elevations views.

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...

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 ...

Clip model at face of element

In Tekla you can click the face of an element to clip a model. You can set multiple clip planes to very quickly clip a large model down to a smaller volume. This is far quicker than stuffing around with the silly handles particularly with large mo...

Include Part information and Assembly name in STEP file import

It would be good if the cells created for parts had the part information added as Item Type information. It would also be good to use Named Graphic groups for Assemblies with the group name being the Assembly name. Currently the nested Cell struct...

Filled Area in non rasterized PDF

It would be great if PDFs could be created that look the same as the display in Microstation itself without rasterizing the PDF. So that also e.g. view color areas are created not only cut ones. Non-rasterized PDFs have many advantages such as OR...

Dynamic Cell Features

The new Perforater tool allows the user to automatically boolean subtract from a host or intersecting solid. When the Parametric Cell containing the Perforator is moved, then boolen operation is moved automatically. This makes it a very flexible a...
