New to MIcrostation, need help developing/understanding LIB

Timothy Conway — Sat, 19 Dec 2020 16:27:09 GMT

This isn't related to OpenRoads. The survey firm I work for recently got Microstation PowerSurvey V8i (SelectSeries10), I am trying to understand how LIB files work with the software and how it integrates into the company's custom template that I am trying to develop (preset layers, lineweights, linetypes, etc.). I am also trying to understand how points (nodes in AutoCAD) are imported and how to create codes for survey figures and their properties. If their is any literature on LIBs and how their created I would love to see it. Thanks

How to set up a PowerSurvey template/library?

Timothy Conway — Fri, 18 Dec 2020 14:13:39 GMT

I am a new user to Microstation, I work for a land surveying firm and we recently got MS PowerSurvey V8i (SelectSeries10). I am wondering on how to set up my company's own personal template (Layers, Lineweights, Codes, Figures, creating new linetypes). I'm also struggling to understand MS file types and what they're used for. I have watched the training videos that came with the PowerSurvey purchase but they focus on drafting and not file management. Any help is appreciated, if anyone has a video or literature on the matter that would also be beneficial.
