Bring back Legacy Protrusion & Boss feature tools with Connect Parametric Modeling

The old protrusion tool was awesome for extruding profiles off solids but the new one doesn't offer a blind extrusion option to allow it's usage in this way. It seems to only work by extruding between or up topre-existing solids which severally li...

Solid bend ( shape bender )

There was long time ago i made something complicated with Solids. Now only simple things.Is this possible without Generative Components ?See video:https://youtu.be/VkInn8Hgj4M?t=1990 33:10 time and later 50:00 with balustrade.... Martin

Parametric Cells - Constraints for cell origin

Currently a cell can be placed by it's origin, however once placed it is fixed in it's location, and the origin point is not able to be updated with constraints. It would be great if we could constrain the origin to another element or apply parame...

Improvements to 3d-pdfs

3d--pdfs are fantastic to use.Still I can see the following1- tool to adjust centre for rotation in the pdf2- hide (selected element) in view3- (stated earlier) list of Named Groups so when selected only the NG is visible.

Add Height (Z) Offset for Array tools for 3D

Hello,For 3D modelling could the Array tools (both standard and parametric) be modified to include a Height (Z) offset value (Distance) to the existing the Row or Column inputs.I think this could be useful for creating stepped arrays with one oper...

Active angle @ X deg. warning

A fairly constant complaint among users is placing a bunch of cells and modeling forgetting that active angle was set to 0.5 degrees or something other then 0. If the active angle is 45, 15 or even 5 degrees it can be obvious that it's not 0. Howe...

Treat the Sheet Index ie the DGNWS like any other DGN and Reference files together.

Allow the ability to reference Sheet indexes together. This way, we can manage large projects with multiple teams working on content. Letting smaller sheet indexes be managed by a larger sheet index would hopefully allow for better user management...

Add roadway Lighting plans capabilities directly in MicroStation and OpenRoads Designer

To analyze and create roadway lighting plans you must first use a program such as AGI32, and then move the design and reports manually into MicroStation/OpenRoads Designer. This capability should be incorporated directly into these programs.

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...

Analyze Point Tool to Viewer

With all the smart information contained in files it is hard to jump (Project Manager-Not a designer) into Bentely View and get the information I sometimes need. Adding the analyze point to the Bentley View would make it more useful for me. As a P...
