  • RE: DTM Surface check points to TIN report (ORD)

    Hello Igor, I might have some information that can help with your question. Currently at Oregon DOT we are deploying ORD and CONNCECT and I am working on the Survey standards and workflows. We have the same issue with Terrain Check Points. I have a rough…
  • RE: OpenRoads Designer 2020 Release 3 - Sheet Index Problems

    And people wonder why I get frustrated that ORD isn't directly built on a Microstation platform...If ORD is supposed to be the only product that I need, then it should have all the basic functionality. If a function is available in MicroStation, it…
  • RE: SS4 survey schema crash

    Use a selection set - the report will work through the selected items.
  • Backward Compatibility of OpenRoads?

    I work with people from another company on this project. They use a more updated version of OpenRoads. They worked on a file and saved it. Now whenever I tried to open it, OpenRoads would only let me open it read-only. Is there a way to scrub the part…
  • Legal Reports Bug - bad bearings

    Using Open Roads Designer Connect Edition, Version 10.05.00.35, the reports PropertyDescriptionExtended, PropertyDescriptionExtended2, and PropertyDescriptionLong give bad bearings. These reports show the wrong quadrant and angle. The angle seems to be…
  • [ORD 2019 R2] Creating Text Favorite for Survey Point - Point Properties Not Available

    I wanted to test making a Text Favorite for our Survey TREE features. Our Attribute names are not the same as the delivered example and I did not see any way to change the field properties of an existing fevorite. So following the video, I attached…
  • [OR Ss4] Survey Data Files - Single big file or separate daily files and Oddities that occur

    For a long time, the standard workflow here has been to combine all data files (in our case, TDS RAW files) into a single behemoth. This dates back to early software where preprocessing was required before bringing in an ICS file of the full Survey. When…
  • RE: [OR Ss4] Survey Data Files - Single big file or separate daily files and Oddities that occur

    In my experience the control points have always been in a separate file "Point List" from the Raw Data. Each Brand of Survey Software treats it slightly different, I can see trying to break out a large file to represent a daily file could wreck some havoc…
  • RE: How to restore configuration variables

    Hi Marcus, Thanks for the reply. I tried with your suggestion but it did not work for me. Even I cleaned the registry files. What I did, I copied configuration variables from other computer then resolved the issue. Thanks

    I'm pretty new to SS4 and have a problem with linear stroke tolerance. I currently have the tolerances set in config as follows: When I input a fieldbook, all tolerances work just fine. Problem is, if I either do a "Create Terrain Model from Graphic…
  • RE: Civil3d LandXML surface to Microstation Surface - Help

    Actually have a look inside an LandXML file out of c3d and youll understand what I mean. Breaklines are defined by an array of points instead of unique breaklines that define triangle edges, therefore they are "rebuilt" differently by different software…
  • RE: Civil3d LandXML surface to Microstation Surface - Help

    Hi, Is there any reason you can't just reference in the surface dwg into a new 3d dgn and merge to master? We have found that the problem with Civil3D LandXML lies in the fact that c3d does not export breakline data in its XMLs so we always have…
  • Bentley Learn Server - SLOW

    Does anyone else experience crazy wait times for the Learn Server to load just a list of tutorials? It's quite brutal to try to move through training when 75% of the time is spent waiting for a list to load. This is not an exaggeration. Total tutorial…
  • Merging files without losing survey data

    Is it possible to merge two .dgn files containing fieldbook data without loosing the features of point generated linear features (manage point list, insert point in linear feature, break linear feature... etc.) from the merged file? I changed the configuration…
