  • RE: [ORD] DU 2D Cell Orientation Questions

    For recent versions of the software, ORD provides an option allowing you to have the cross slope for inlets be extracted from the active terrain. If you are using this option, then for roadway inlets it does matter which direction the line is drawn. You…

  • RE: [ORD] DU 2D Cell Orientation Questions

  • Idea- Make Geometry builder edit act the same as Inroads check integrity

    I missed check integrity from Inroads a lot, I have started playing with the geometry builder edit and there is a lot of potential for this tools, we could almost make it work like the check integrity from Inroads. Why not adapt it?

  • OpenSite Designer - Landscaping Features?

    This month's SIG was very interesting. Echoing this post , I wonder OpenSite Designer might not pave the way for a landscape architecture BIM app. A lot of the elements are there for a unique offering, especially as Vue Render is being integrated into…

  • RE: Templates - Ditch Modeling With a Set Depth and Width From Backslope
