I'm having an issue with my templates. I have a null point to create an auxilary lane where there are the corresponding corridor references. None of the components in the Aux lane null point are used in the regular mainline and I have display rules to…

Hi My English may be wrong because my English is not good. We are preparing a project for the leveling of a large land at different elevations. We will prepare excavation and filling calculations. Can we do this with the "GEOPAK…

Hello, There exists a setting or configuration variable which controls the functionality of gap elements (the hidden portion of intervals). Normally when you hover your element selection tool over a gap it will highlight and you can select the gap directly;…

Hi, I want to create 3D terrain file from available data in TNRIS. There are some available file types: LIDAR cloud points (LAZ), Disc Image File (IMG) and corresponding XML Documents. I tried "Import terrain model from file" command in OenRoad. The…

Hello, I'm running Power Geopak V8i SS4 and I'm having an issue. I have an alignment file. In a separate file, I referenced in the alignment and created an offset alignment and created a corridor off the offset alignment. Now I have referenced the corridor…

I have a null point that displays a curb in my template with a horizontal feature constraint to that searches for the selected feature definition. I created a horizontal feature from a series of regular microstation lines chained together using microstation…

OPEN ROADS QUESTION...

Need advice on transitioning from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and being SS2 compatible for the client (NCDOT). Their current software requirements are listed below, but you'll notice that corridor modeling workflows are to remain in Geopak SS2. My understanding…

Hello, I am using PowerGEOPAK SS4 and my dgn file has about 15 models so it takes forever to close a file (at least 5-10 minutes) because of the Status "Scanning Model: x" dialogue box that goes through every single model. Does anyone have the same…

I can't help but feel there is a simple solution for this but here I am, in need of the great wisdom of the community here. I'm trying to get my road shoulder slope to vary while the slope from my centerline to the edge of travel lane fixed at 2%, while…

Hi, I have been using Geopak for a project where I need to change some of the areas that I assigned to some inlets. I changed those areas in the dgn and then I used the area tools to assign them to the inlets. Those inlets it might have or not areas…

I don't normally use Microstation for 3D. Please help. I need step by step instructions for dummies. Haha. Thanks.

I created and chained my horizontal alignment using horizontal geometry tools, created and chained a profile for that alignment using vertical geometry tools. I then change the name of my horizontal geometry and my profile no longer appears in COGO. I…

Is there a way to find surface areas of fill at specific elevations using the 3d model? For instance, we are designing a service road that will have 15-25 foot of fill and we need to use a chemical compound to make the compaction quicker. They are going…

Hi, Is there any command in Geopak drainage to delete all the nodes in one go ? Or we have to delete them one by one by selecting "delete node" option? Any idea?

The naming convention of the linear elements of my Alignment changes when I export to XML. Normally this wouldn't matter nor would I have even noticed, but I'm importing the data to an excel file for design purposes and the macros do not like the renaming…

Anyone successfully deployed Geopak using SCCM ever? We get and have always gotten Error 1609 when deploying because SCCM uses the SYSTEM account to install software. I'm not sure why Geopak is and has always been different than the rest of the software…

I've run into some issues when cutting XS for culverts specifically. All other conduits have shown up in XS view as well as our trench trunk lines. When attempting to trouble shoot the issue I found that the culverts show up in the dynamic XS view but…

I am running FDOT SS4 MR11 and I am getting an error when I try to reference a .dwg file sent to me by a sub-consultant. The error says that the file type is not supported. I am also running the most recent version of RealDWG. My early research tells…

I'm having an issue with my alignment auto annotating in certain circumstances. If I create my horizontal geometry with simple lines and arcs or Complex by PI and then chain it, the stationing appears. However, if I create an alignment with Simple Lines…

I am really hoping that I am explaining this correctly. We have an engineer who is using a reference file and will Copy\Parallel. When they attempt to delete a copy, then GeoPak will crash and give what appears a standard exception screen. She has created…

Is anyone else still dealing with the legacy of V7DGN Global Origin Offsets in the civil design world? In vanilla MicroStation: Due to the use of a Global Origin Offset in legacy V7DGN format files, the same Global Origin Offset was added to our V8DGN…

Often when zooming in and out when I have an aerial raster attached, this image of a old-time camera pops up and I can't see what I'm doing. This also happens when I try to prin anything and I have to ask others in my office to print for me. does anyone…

I have a model in openroads that was created off of imported geopak profiles. This model has been updated many times with this same gpk and it correctly replaced the previous profile. However, for some reason in the last two weeks when I import the new…
