Some of our customers have the same question.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I searched similar questions, and found that&amp;nbsp;V8i style Tasks could be displayed in MicroStation CONNECT Edition using the configuration variable MS TASKNAVIGATION CONFIGURATION.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The website is: &lt;a href="/products/microstation/w/microstation__wiki/24481/how-to-display-the-v8i-style-tasks-dialog-in-microstation-connect-edition"&gt;https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/w/microstation__wiki/24481/how-to-display-the-v8i-style-tasks-dialog-in-microstation-connect-edition&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I tried this method on ORD but it did not work. Maybe there is other&amp;nbsp;configuration variable that we could change in order to solve this problem?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am running ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.02.99. I am facing a issue with renditions. The issue is found when changes have been made to a reference file. If you create a rendition within the Explorer client, the rendition will not show the most recent changes made, and display old reference data. When I create a plot through interplot organizer, the rendition comes out correctly, and displays the most recent changes made to its references. Any help would be much appreciated.

&lt;p&gt;Does anyone know a quick solution to fix the Bowtie Error that happens around tight corners of a corridor? (image below)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- I know you can delete all the vertices, but it just goes back and re-draws if any edits are done to the corridor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-I know you use a clipping reference to clip out the bowtie, and then generate new lines manually but that is very tedious.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Looks like Civil 3D solved this in 2018 so surely ORD 2021 must have a solution no??&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAlq8QYYtdY"&gt;Civil 3D 2018 New Feature: Clear Corridor Bowties - YouTube&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Basically, I have a site modeled with a bunch of 2D Geometry in the Default Model including active profiles, which in turn show up in the Default 3D Model. I have also used the 3D elements to create a Terrain. I&amp;#39;ve now decided that I want this site to be in a different file which also has a small site created already. Is there a way to bring &amp;quot;Everything&amp;quot; in from the one file to the other file without losing its 2D/3D connection? If I reference the file I intend to copy into the other file, everything shows up correct. (2D in the 2D model &amp;amp; 3D in the Default 3D model) but if I do a &amp;quot;merge to master&amp;quot; it just strips all the 2D stuff down to regular Microstation entities (including the construction lines) and all the 3D from the reference file disappears.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Below are just a few of the enhancements you&amp;rsquo;ll encounter in this release.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;General Enhancements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Update of Power Platform (V10.16.00.80).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added support for side-by-side installations.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Changed product branding to reflect release name (e.g. 2021 Release 1).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Optimized printing/plotting to increase performance by 5x.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Updated right-click options in Sheet Index and Project Explorer to include all available options.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Integrated the Downgrade Civil Model tool with ProjectWise.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Drawing Production and Annotation Enhancements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Enhanced the Text Favorite Manager to be the single source for the creating, editing and managing text favorites, including Survey, Drainage &amp;amp; Utilities.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Enabled the annotation of Survey and D&amp;amp;U crossing features in cross sections.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Enhanced both the Element Annotation and Drawing Model Annotation tools with an option to use &amp;ldquo;Override Annotation Group&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added a new Civil Labeler tool.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added the ability to create cross section sheets from existing cross section drawing models.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added a new Cross Section Navigator tool.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Enhanced drawing production options to allow for the separate naming of Views, Drawing Models and Sheet Models.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added a new reference option (&lt;em&gt;Synchronize View &amp;gt; Settings from Design Model)&lt;/em&gt; allowing the levels and view options displayed in sheet models to be controlled from a container file.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Drainage and Utilities Enhancements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Profile runs can now show the conduits that connect to a node, that are not part of the profile run.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Annotation of multiple conduits in cross section drawings can be automated using an Annotation Filter, which now lets you select conduit feature definitions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The Extract Utilities from Graphics command now lets you select a feature definition for nodes, as well as conduits.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You can now import and export a Utilities submodel, as well as a Drainage submodel using a .sqlite file.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Item Types Enhancements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added the ability to define pick lists in an excel file.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added the ability to define multiple Item Types per Feature Definition.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added the ability to define default values for each Item Type property per Feature Definition.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added synchronization of Item Types between 2D, 3D, and profile models. The synchronized Item Type can be viewed and modified from any of the three views/models.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please refer to the ReadMe for a comprehensive list of changes and enhancements.&lt;/p&gt;

(ie. not a corridor etc.)&amp;nbsp; It also doesn&amp;#39;t seem to work for annotating side slopes generated with the &amp;quot;Create 3D by Slope to target&amp;quot; tool?
