ADD A NEW IDEA

Pinned ideas

PINNED Add measuring/pick distance tool in parametric solid and variables tools
As a MicroStation modelling user, I would like the capability of filling the Distance field by picking two points (or distance between other elements) from within the tool, so that I can be much quicker in creating solids and other elements where ...
PINNED What happens after I submit an idea?
The Bentley Ideas Portals are intended to offer users the opportunity to share ideas more directly and conveniently with our product development teams for consideration. There is no longer a need to raise a technical support ticket in order to pro...

Smooth(shaded) render and bump

Add bump maps in smooth render. Bump materials(aka normal maps) can be HW accelerated too(shaders) so could be added as Display style option.

Enhance Pattern etc.

What would be nice would be to have the border of a pattern have the ability to be "construction". Patterns I am working with now have the border the same color as the the patterns. But the reviewers don't want the borders showing because the bord...

Constraints: Coincident to Face

Currently there does not appear to be a tool to constrain a Line, Circle etc to a Face of a Solid.It would be very useful to provide a tool to constrain the 2d Constraints solving plane associated with these elements to a user-selected Face.At the...

Allow non-numerical characters to be placed in stacked fractions

Currently in Microstation's text fields stacked fractions will only trigger with numerical characters. This limits formatting options and can lead to "fudging" the look of annotations.

Table Banded Rows

Add ability to have banded rows format to tables. You can do this manually by selecting every other row and applying a fill but it would be nice it were i option of the table itself, like in Microsoft Word. Just makes the table easier to read.

Constraints: Link to elements in Cells

Transfered from EAP Ideas listDraw a rectangular Block_01. Make one edge parallel to Line_01.Modify the vertex of Line_01. The edge of Block_01 rotates to maintain parallel alignment with LIne_01.To make Block_01 maintain its square corners, I hav...

Compound 2D/3D cells for all Bentley products.

With all the DE requirements now for output deliveries we now need to generate our 2D outputs from our 3D files and one major thing missing in MicroStation is 2D/3D compound cells with different presentation in various views. From what I have hear...
