Constraints: Option to manually include 'construction' geometry into the cell or constraints group

Transfered from the EAP Ideas list.With Feature Solids, profile geometry used for protrusions, subtractions etc are stored with the FS element / Cells. They can be displayed on screen when there is a need to re-visit and edit the profiles. This is...

Constraints: Drop / Ungroup Cell with Constraints

When a Cell is dropped or an Orphan Cell (Ctrl-G) is dropped, the Constraints go missing.This makes it difficult to store and re-use design intent.The Cell creation / grouping process should honour and retain the element's Constraints.

Constraints: Associative Copy Parallel

Transfered from EAP Ideas listIt be very good to be able associatively link an element in the active model to an element in a Ref attachment.... using the Copy Parallel tool.I understand that CVE elements retain a link back to their original eleme...

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...

Cells: Include Saved View on Insertion

When a Model is inserted as a Cell, it would be good to include the Saved Views, which seem to saved to each Model. Since the Saved View includes Ref attachment and level info, the embedded SV could be used to expand and/or change the Cell's conte...

Ref Dialog that supports local nesting hierarchies

Working with nested References is not very easy and limited. Most of the power options you get with direct attachments are not available. Probably a lot of reasons for why this is. Nested refs have a reputation for slowing things down. Maybe it's ...
