Add constraint to elements (such as walls) to have their height or placement location to be defined relative to floor above, floor below, or other plane defined in Floor Manager. This would cause elements to change their element height and/or moun...

The ability to automatically calculate space volume property which can be reflected in schedules.

Ability to place annotations that lists all layers in the correct order with properties (width, materials, etc.).

On large projects, with multiple (& repeated) buildings it is common to model the building around the file origin, and then reference/place into actual location. The current system does not recognise if the refernce is moved, so the floor mana...

Addressing overheating due to solar gain is increasingly a big problem for building designers, and is now also a statutory requirement. OBD/OBES/Hevacomp is well placed to provide an analytical design tool that provides quick feedback to the facad...

For our structural analysis we are currently using the new RFEM 6 from Dlubal-Software and for the design part we are using Openbuildings Designer.In our BIM oriented projects we exchange our data between RFEM 6 and Openbuildings Designer mostly b...

Similar as in the Grid manager we need the option for the floor manager to "Rotate by points" so that a building can be positioned and rotated properly.

In today's BIM world the "I" of information becomes more and more important. This information is driven mostly by the properties attached to an element, more than by it's geometry. OBD already has a lot of built-in properties, also when it comes t...

It would be good to integrate OVC into OBD. Very few will be able to justify paying for the PS license just to get OVC inspite of its benefits. Link to previous discussion. OVC would also be very useful enabling tool for updating OBD's Place Objec...

The new CS tool looks very limited in scope. It would be good to extend its viability by supporting meshes. Flooring is rarely level or flat when you look across a project. It would be good to have an option that is based on Mstn's Thicken tool th...
