2D/3D align reference files

The ability to align 2D/3D reference files to abstract angles. Especially for 3D where the current option to rotate is limiting when the angles are abstract on xy, xz & yz planes

Add Set Elevation (z-value) tool

Elements often get placed at the wrong Z value when working in 3D. It would be helpful to have a set Z value tool.This would Set the selected (fenced) elements to the defined elevation.In the case of 3D elements, the lowest part of the object woul...

Import the ESRI ASC file format into Point Cloud tools

The ESRI ASC file format is typically a gridded data model extracted from an ESRI database.Typically, the files contain millions of points. The two examples I have now (that I am trying to figure out how to import) contain 9 million and 16 million...

Add more options to the clipping planes in the clip volumes and dynamic views

Add 1 more plane to differentiate the area of the clip volume where to show hidden lines and an area after where the hidden lines are off. It is very common to show the hidden lines of the objects that are just a few meters (3-4 m) after the cutti...

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...

Basic Terrain Modeling Tools

MS-I-8 has been given a 'Will not implement' category. No explaination why. It is worth noting that Revit has been making big strides here with its Toposolids. A lot of functionality is also available in Mstn but not chained together, resulting in...

Clash Detection 2.0 - Precise Highlighting

The way clashes are highlighted in Mstn V8i and ABD is pretty rudimentary.The two elements are highlighted in red/blue, without any visual indication of where exactly the clash is. This forces the user to guess where it is, which is sub-optimal an...
