Can I make Microstation load a different .mnu file that the one supplied with FDOTSS4 without affecting anyone else; ie; is this a local setting on my machine?

  • Pat,

    If you add a line to the end of the FDOTSS4.UCF in your local C:\FDOTSS4\WORKSPACE\USERS folder, you can do this.

    The variable is MS_FKEYMNU

    Be sure to strike enter to leave a blank line below this new line in your UCF file.

  • So, if I go with the .ucf method, my FDOTSS4.ucf will look like this:

    %if exists ($(_USTN_SITE)workspace/users/CustomVars.txt)
    %include $(_USTN_SITE)workspace/users/CustomVars.txt
    %endif

    #--------------------User Defined Variables-----------------------#
    MS_FKEYMNU

    How will Microstation know to load my custom .mnu file? Do I copy it into C:\FDOTSS4\Workspace\Users?
