Is there a way to delete INTERIOR triangles. I tried using the delete with line tool and no triangles were deleted (after a LONG wait).

T Intersection civil cell placed at wrong elevation

Andrew Miller — Fri, 15 Nov 2019 15:37:40 GMT

Using ORD 10.070132

When placing a T intersection civil cell, the horizontal appears fine, but the elevation of the cell is well above (~100') the profile of the side street C/L. Any suggestions on why this might occur?

Trim/Clip terrain model

Andrew Miller — Mon, 14 Oct 2019 16:38:48 GMT

ORD CE

I have 2 huge terrain models I've merged into one even more huge model. How can I quickly create a rectangular clipped model of a small portion of the overall. I envision a fence or element that would be used to void clip outside the rectangle and leave me with a much smaller model.

Point Cloud tools

Andrew Miller — Fri, 20 Sep 2019 12:23:28 GMT

Can anyone tell me whether there are any tools for editing the classification of points within a point cloud - specifically, where a group of points in a particular area are classified incorrectly? I picture placing a shape around a group of points and changing the classification to ground instead of created.

Drape element Fail

Using ORD 10.070132 (just upgraded this morning to try to solve the issue below, but it didn't help)

I'm trying to drape a simple line to STM and I get this message: "Not able to drape anything with element 2"

Suggestions?

Is there a solution to the existing ground showing up on top of the design surface in a cut area?

Jeffrey Hamilton — Wed, 16 Jan 2019 19:37:57 GMT

I have a road that has a fairly large cut section but when I take it to Lumen to render and animate it the existing ground shows up on top of the proposed surface.

So the only design surface I can see is areas that the grade is higher.

How do you view / annotate stationing in ORD4?

Andrew Miller — Fri, 18 Jan 2019 13:58:58 GMT

I've used Inroads for 25+ years and I can't find any command that allows me to annotate stationing of my centerline. I have a complete corridor built but can't do this SIMPLE task inn ORD Connect U4.

What's New in Update 3 - Tabular geometry editors

Andrew Miller — Fri, 20 Apr 2018 11:30:20 GMT

Added a Tabular Editor for horizontal and vertical geometry (Technology Preview).

This has been a major item on my wish list for ORD. The "What's New..." says "(Technology Preview)" - what does that mean? Is there help documentation for this new addition?

Up till today I was always able to go to the reference attachment window in order to Exchange into the 3d model file. Now when I try it the "Exchange" tool is greyed out. Any suggestions?

attaching / draping MrSid files

Andrew Miller — Tue, 01 May 2018 14:08:18 GMT

I'm trying to attach .sid files for draping onto a scalable terrain model. The attachment seems to transform the .sdw parameters into meters from US Survey Foot. Is there a standard workflow for attaching MrSid files using the models Geocoding?
