Cross Sections - Locate Station via Data Point

$
0
0

The dynamic cross sections window is awesome!

But, would love to see the "Locate Station via Data Point" be made a tool button at the top of the window (next to the "View Properties" and Station Location menus).

Also, when cycling through the stationing (using the previous and next station arrow buttons), what dictates which station it jumps to?

Would love to see some option to dictate an interval at which it jumps to the next/previous stations. For example, every 10, 50, 100, 200 feet.

Thanks.


Side slope annotation

$

Hello everyone,

I'm having some problems with side slope annotation. So this is what i have done : 

* I created a new plan/linear3d Group Annotation

* I added a Side Slope Annotation entry

* I wrote the feature definitions in the Features text box

* I chosed the new "d annotation group to the proper feature symbology

However, when I tried to annotate the element, nothing appears.

Do you have any solutions ?

Cut Fill Volumes between two surfaces

$

Can anybody direct me towards any tutorials on how to compute earthwork quantities between two surfaces without having to create corridores? I have designed a complex mass grading plan with a few SCM's for a rather large site and need to compare it to an existing terrain with a stripped topsoil amount. A rather basic and very important step to obtain a grading permit and basically slope a site for design. But I am coming up empty with Google search, Bently communities, help section, Youtube and such. Please tell me I don't have to create this model with corridores and such to use as a proposed surface? I have been trying to do this by using the "Create Cut Fill Volumes" command and coming up short. Most programs this is a 3-4 click process.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,

Jeremy

Civil 3D Object Enablers to use with Open Roads Designer

My coworker is using AutoCAD Civil3D 2018 to produce plans for our client.  I am doing the drainage design (storm sewer calculations) and since I am unfamiliar with Civil3D am working in Open Roads Designer using the Drainage and Utilities tab.  He has already laid out the inlets and pipes and now I am trying to create the storm sewer database in Open Roads SUE.  When I attach his dwg of the storm sewer, all of the inlets, pipes, etc are little boxes.  I have tried installing the Civil3D object enablers (2018.3 version) from the Autodesk website but still only see boxes instead of the inlets, etc.  What am I doing wrong?  I am using version 10.08.01.33 of OpenRoads Designer CONNECT Edition - 2020 Release 2 Update 8.  

Change level name to be the same as the value of an ItemType

Hi,

Is there a way to automatically change the level name of an element to be the same as the value of an ItemType attached to the same element?

Idea: Dynamic Name seed

$
0
0

Una Definición de Característica como para "Alineación" tiene una propiedad "Semilla de Nombre" pero me gustaría que pudiéramos agregar propiedades de objeto en el mismo nombre de objeto.

Quiero decir: en Civil 3D, cuando creamos una alineación de desplazamiento, podemos establecer su nombre de plantilla usando operadores y propiedades como: Alineación principal + desplazamiento + contador.

Entonces, si su alineación principal se llama "align1" y el desplazamiento es -3.50, entonces el nombre del resultado para esa alineación de desplazamiento es: align1 -3.50 1

El problema en Civil 3D es que el nombre de la plantilla solo es válido durante la creación de esa alineación. Si más adelante edita el desplazamiento de la alineación de desplazamiento, el nombre permanece igual.

A le gustaría una "semilla de nombre" más poderosa en ORD. Ahora es solo un buen comienzo. +

Tal vez los nombres deberían tener un "nombre de semilla de bloqueo" (V / F) para bloquear el nombre o un icono (glifo) junto al nombre para saber que ese nombre es un nombre de semilla completo.

Or for profiles:

name seed: <Parent alignment´s name> + "_layout"

Limitations in Assigning Station Equation between BRT SS2 and SS10

$

0

Hello BRT users,

BRT SS2 allows us to create a station equation with the same prefix multiple times. For example, A 1000.000 and A 2000 and so on.

But SS10 doesn't allow the creation of a station equation with the same prefix. It gives an error "Duplicate ahead station".

Is there a solution to this?

Thanks

I have searched and searched the net looking for a solution and have found none. Is this not possible? I have even tried exporting the 2D linework to a V8i version drawing and export the shp file, but no luck.

Bentley Learn - Element not Valid for Tool Error

$

I am working through the Drainage Layout and Design course in the "09 - OpenRoads Designer - Drainage & Utilities - Fundamentals" module in the Learn Server. This is a PDF instruction course to walk through placing manholes, inlets, pipes, etc. All the files and references that I am using were downloaded directly from Bentley for use in this course.

I am receiving the "element not valid for tool error" when attempting to insert a node or generate a profile. 

First, I receive the error when attempting to place a manhole along an existing pipe. The instructions from the PDF are shown below (left) and the screenshot of the model (right) is when I attempt to do the same. You can see the difference in the pop-up diolog box that is generated between their screenshot and mine. I'm on step 7 in the instructions.

I skipped this and went on without placing the manhole but then I received the same error when attempting to create  a profile. When I attempt to click on the start node to generate the profile is doesn't seem to recognize the node. Step 6 in the PDF instructions below.

Any idea why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?

Thanks

Variable end conditions for cut ditches

$

I have a corridor template that has both variable fill sections and variable cut sections. The fill works just fine, but the cut does not work fully. When I test the template, it appears to be working, but does not fully display on the cross section explorer or in the 3D model. The cut/fill lines are moving accordingly, but the back slope is not wanting to display. 

I am using a null, "do not construct" point to dictate the low end of the variable slope.

  

Does anyone know the fix for this or have a different way a producing the variable slope to allow it to show in cross sections and the model?

Thanks in advance.

CONNECT advisor not working

I can run a single training video in CONNECT advisor, then when I switch to another, it gives me the error shown in attached picture (Page not found).   It's like it looses connection the the Learn server?  If I close advisor and reopen, it will ask me to login again, then let me run 1 more video.

Title box ( Start and End stations)

Hello everyone,

When creating a plan&profile sheet, I would like that the title box contains the start and end stations of the alignement represented in each sheet. 

Example of the title box : Plan and Profile Sheet - From 98+844 to 99+844

For now I'm typing these titles manually, however I would like to know if there is a way to make it automatic.

In Microstation GEOPAK, the Coordinate Geometry - Navigator - ID tool is not working.

In Microstation GEOPAK, the Coordinate Geometry - Navigator - ID tool is not working. I click on the ID button then a survey point and it does not populate/highlight the point in the navigator. Instead it creates cross-hairs with the mouse pointer. Already cleared out resource files and restarted computer.

Import Revit DXF or FBX into ConceptStation Model

Hello. So I've been testing the OpenRoads and OpenRail ConceptStation software for a little while now. Currently, I'm trying to import (through the furniture/component builder) a Revit Model into ConceptStation, but it gives me an error during import. I was wondering if there is a proper workflow between the two programs. It seems a 2D view was able to import without any issues, but when I tried with a 3D view, it gave me a "There was an error during import. Unable to continue." message. Any advice would be great!

Extracting a Terrain Boundary to a linestring in ORD

$

Hi,

I have a Terrain Surface which has a boundary.

I'd like to Extract the Boundary to a Linestring then edit the Linestring into 3 boundaries to reduce the size of the DTM.

I have seen cryptic descriptions of using a Mesh and the extract Boundary Tool for a Mesh.

I don't have a Mesh, and my drawing is too large to replicate the DTM as some sort of Mesh (whatever that is).

I'd simply like to extract the boundary as a linestring straight from my DTM surface (Terrain).

Is this possible in ORD without going through some sort of mesh creation, mesh "top" thingy that some have eluded to.

This was possible in InRoads using the Extract 3-D feature (or something like that).

Thanks

Andrew
