Hi Guys,
I used to work in Microstation Powercivil SS2 before for importing my survey information. I used to upload all my raw data from my total station to Powercivil SS2 through Survey<Dataset<New and upload my .csv file into it. It used to create…
Join Bentley's Joey LouAllen for the next OpenRoads Special Interest Group (SIG) virtual workshop, Moving to OpenRoads Designer – Terrain Modeling , on Wednesday, February 14, 2018. Sessions are set for 9 a.m. EST or 5 p.m. EST and share the same agenda…
Hello, I'm a new user to OpenRoads Designer (Connect Edition), having previously worked in GEOPAK years ago..
My question is, does OpenRoads Designer use a xml or smd file for reading survey PCODES like I used to have in GEOPAK?
If so, where do you…
When can I use the horizontal and vertical geometry tools in Open Roads. If I want to offset a linear element in the survey database I get the following message:
Are the tools shown below not functional with the linear elements generated from the…
I have a Caice dataset (pt4). This file will not import to SS4. I'm looking for a brave soul who would try to import the data to the attached seed file. I need to verify where the problem is. Is the issue on my PC or is it the .pt4 file? You'll have to…

I'm not an active Inroads user. I use OpenRoads with Geopak. I use the linking codes all the time between C3D and Geopak. In fact being able to adopt our land development side workflow and coding system into OpenRoads has allowed us to double…
This topic has been dealt with briefly in the following post.
Migrating a project from SS3 to SS4
Verified Answer
I have been working extensively on a project in SS3 and I am wondering if any problems…
Nico - I have a solution. Not sure if this is the cause of the error however I no longer am receiving the error. The file I have been importing is lacking a backsight line in the FBK file. See the captures to better explain.
When using the edit linear elements tool it zooms out to show the entire chain being edited. This is an inefficient workflow.
1. By zooming out to the limits of the element being edited the operator has added more view steps to get "back" to the view…
This DGN is extremely unstable. I continue to get "maximum attribute size exceeded" error and crash. I haven't had issues with this file in the past. Can anyone open this file and see if it crashes.
SS4_SURVRD01.DGN
I have a dgn file that has started generating .NET errors. These errors happen whenever I click in black space area with no elements selected. I have placed the error message box below:
I have also posted the dgn file and text from the error log as…
I have a dgn that I need to export graphics from the field books. I'm familiar with the workflow. However this function isn't working with my dataset.
There are two issues:
1. The exported file still contains field books.
2. The parent dgn file…
I'm noticing a strong correlation between OpenRoads SS4 .NET errors and Outlook 2016.
I have followed the .NET issue fix shown in the Wiki forum. Still get these .NET errors when Outlook is open and a calendar reminder pops up. If I close Outlook…
I have tried to use the file load workflow as well.
Capture shows the field book is populated with data.
This capture shows the results of the Least squares analysis vertical report. No adjusted elevations seem to be computed. Our firm has 3 first…
Yes the word Geopak is more of loose term. I only use the term "Geopak" when I'm not working in OpenRoads. Similar to the AutoCad vs Civil 3D nomenclature. Both are Autodesk products but not the same technology or workflow.
On a different vain....The…
The FBK works in OpenRoads. There is a formatting issue. Easily resolved by changing the "AD F1" to "VA F1". Not sure what the final traverse should look like. I'll upload the dgn and revised fbk file for you to look over. I took a few screen shots to…
I know this is confusing. The drop down is for initiating a "legacy" version of Geopak Survey. The Project Explorer tab is only relevant to OpenRoads survey workflow. These are two very different applications. Legacy Geopak Survey operates using an external…
Hi,
I've run into a problem when adding (start) to a point to create a linear feature for a road centerline. When I create the new linear feature, all of my terrain model edits are reset. I've added breaklines to the terrain and somehow they are just…
I have experienced another fatal Microstation crash. The issue is:
The file crashed while drawing an existing pipe culvert line. No error messages. The file aborted during a Microstation command (in a rotated 3d view).
The survey database appears…
Hello EL_C_
The issue can be rectified by simply changing the following settings (see capture below):
The setting converts the linear survey features to a static point list rather than a dynamic list based on the active linking codes.
This setting…
Version info and the offending dgn file are below. I was experiencing redraw times in excess of 3 to 5 minutes. I have made a few revisions to the file that have helped however I would like to verify someone else's experience with the same file.
This…
Hello Sanders,
Yes I understand the relationship between feature codes and name. Maybe an example is better.......
1. Survey crew collects 100 storm pipes but does not use linking codes to connect the survey points for pipe connectivity.
2. Tech…
