I have recently come across some MicroStation fonts that cannot be edited with the Word Processor. This is in MicroStation V8i, version 08.11.05.17. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;The fonts appear in my drawings, but when I try to make an edit to the text, the word processor shows up but it appears blank, as if I had not selected any text. I noticed that I can type text and it will make the change, but it's hard to edit text when you can't see what you are editing.&amp;nbsp; Sometimes the program will crash when this happens. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;These same fonts work normally if I edit the text using the Dialog Box instead of the Word Processor, so this is the work-around that I have to live with. Of course, this kind of thing drives the new MicroStation users crazy. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Area Measurements (ATOOL?)</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum/24597/area-measurements-atool</link><pubDate>Fri, 06 Jun 2014 15:19:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:efb5214b-fcf7-4c01-9f85-c48b25e8c60e</guid><dc:creator>camexas</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;
I am looking for a way to display area measurements in my drawings using MicroStation V8i. I would also like to have the option to convert units of area measured (for example, if my working units are feet, the measure area command would display areas in square feet, but I need to convert these to acres for the project I'm working on). 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
There used to be an mdl application called atool.ma (or atools.ma,&amp;nbsp;I can't remember), but I would imagine that it wouldn't work for V8i.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The measure area command in MicroStation measures the area, but doesn't seem to allow the user to place the number in the drawing, the result is only displayed in the&amp;nbsp;tool box.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;thanks,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

I am trying to create horizontal and vertical alignments based on these old graphics. For the horizontal alignments, I attach the curb and gutter linewok (horizontal) into my drawing, and I can easily create the horizontal elements. But for profiles (vertical alignments) I can&amp;#39;t seem to find a way to attach the file containing my profile grid and curb and gutter profiles into the profile views that Inroads SS3 uses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is there a way to import a vertical alignment from graphics into an Inroads SS3 (open roads) profile? I suppose I could attach the profile into a regular 2D or 3D view and use the native profile commands to create a vertical alignment into native .alg, but I would like to try to do the same with the new profile window that the Open Roads technology is promoting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m having a hard time grasping the concept of these &amp;quot;profile views&amp;quot;. They obviously behave different from any other standard view, and I don&amp;#39;t think they allow reverence files to be attached to them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chris&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
