MS Connect - Worksets / Workspace Management

Alex Badaoui — Fri, 29 Jun 2018 21:12:42 GMT

Still experimenting myself on a good setup, but I did have a thought to the structure:

Organisation level = All DGNLIB, SEED, settings, etc relevant to a client (for me that is IL Tollway)

Workspace = Project level (old PCF area)

Workset = Groups of similar DGNs within the same project. Example, Workset for SUDA drainage, Workset for Modeling of Zone 1, etc.

Thoughts or opinions on this? The natural fall of the program seems to want to do this.

Connect - Worksets/Workspace Management

Gerald Piotrowski — Mon, 08 Feb 2016 21:19:56 GMT

Good Morning All,

After having some time to wrap my head around some of the changes to the workspace/workset concept, I am seeing that we will have to completely rethink how we have our workspace and projects organized.

So, I wanted to get others opinions on how they like the new WorksSets/Workspaces with MicroStation Connect.

More precisely the structure of how the projects are organized and managed.
Do you like the way the configurations have changed? (i.e. multiple level of standards folders, number of config files)
What are some of the drawbacks you see for your company using this new workflow?
How do you plan on setting up your standards if you do work for a large firm that has their own Workspace/workset structure and standards?

Also, I would like to know if Bentley will be making any changes to the way the Workspace/Workset are currently setup in the future?

Thanks,

Gerald Piotrowski

System ID for custom line styles

Alex Badaoui — Mon, 11 Jun 2018 14:03:42 GMT

What is the purpose of "System ID":

This property is accessed via the custom line styles:

Element Menu-Line Styles-Edit, then double-click on one of the custom line styles

We learned (the HARD WAY!!!) that somehow this box changed its number to something other than 0. When a number other than 0 is entered, the line style can not be chosen and the program will auto-select the line style to next style which is higher alphabetically that does NOT have a number assigned to "System ID".

So for the Bentley team - what is the purpose of this attribute? if it has no function, please remove it as entering numbers into it causes instability in line style selection.
