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...
When selecting an Element Template, there does not seem to be a logical order of element templates or folders. It would be much simpler to have all folders and templates in alphabetical order. See the screenshot below from ORD.

I am asking that Bentley provide a Swept path analysis for MicroStation. Generally, we use MicroStation for preliminary analysis and look at truck turning to support the initial design. I would assume that ORD and other design software would use t...

Now that we have the ability to add tables to our DGN files. We can add the areas of many shapes to the table. It would be very useful to have an option to calculate the sum of all the areas. At the moment we have to copy/paste this into excel to ...
Overhaul the current Line Style Editor user interface. It is very non-intuitive and difficult to work with, which discourages both CAD administrators and the more tech savvy CAD users from creating custom line styles. Changes to the functionality ...
