Hatch Patterns?

CrazyIvan303 — Thu, 13 Nov 2014 14:02:34 GMT

Coming from AutoCAD, I am kind of confused where hatch patterns are located in Microstation. Then, I realized that basic Microstation does not have any included hatch pattern files or cells save the standard single line or cross hatch.

Does anyone have, or do you know where I can get for free a cell library with standard-type hatch patterns? Things like concrete, honeycomb, sand, earth, metal cross section etc... ?

Thanks.

CONNECT Edition Training Issues

Paige Sechrist — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 00:54:34 GMT

I'm starting to work through some MicroStation CONNECT edition training from the LEARNserver and am running into some issues.

Working in the "Introducing the MicroStation CONNECT Edition" workbook, one of the initial steps says to set the Active Workspace to "Example" then 5 WorkSets should be available to choose from - "Building", "Civil", "General", Geospatial", and "Plant". However, the only WorkSet option I'm getting is "MetroStation".

Another instance is when working in the "Creating Workspaces" workbook. The first step says to open CONNECT and choose "BentleyCONNECTTraining" from the Workspace drop down, but I don't see that option. Is there a way to browse to certain workspaces that are contained in the practice datasets, or is there an initial set-up step that I've missed where this Workspace would have been created?

I'm sure there's a simple and obvious solution, or just something that I've missed, but I'm just not finding any of these options that any of the practice workbooks are telling me to choose.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Paige

Hi,

I have send the latest i-model add-in to a Revit 2018 user. Their reply to me is that the add-in is not compatable with Revit 2018. Is there a solution to this ?

Thanks

Template from an empty workspace in AECOSIM Building Designer Connect Edition

Erick Sanchez — Thu, 11 Jan 2018 16:50:26 GMT

Hello, I'm trying to start using AECOSIM with the neutral metric dataset but I cant understand how ridiculous is the initial process.

First of all, we need to download the NM dataset from the installer. This content ends in the route ~ Configuration \ WorkSpaces \ AECOsimExamples \ worksets and following the logical path, I realized that this new workset contains the Neutral Metric standard that I need to use here in South America.
then, if I need to create a new project folder (workspace), it is EMPTY !, there is not a single option to use the template folder mentioned before as a basis for my new project.

then, creating the workset, all empty again. you have to manually copy the template folder to your new location, create a empty workset, rename the workset, and start a new dgn wherever the path guides you.

I think that bentley needs to redesign this entire process, and find a new way to:

download datasets or templates worspaces from a different location, not linked to the installer. It has not sense!

Reuse the template dataset folder as the thing is, to TEMPLATE. there have to be an option inside AECOSIM, that allows us to select what structure to use and that the application will copy automaticly.

Allows users to CHANGE LOCATIONS from the workspace folders, after that the project starts.

You really have to make the software more user friendly.

how to upload a contextcapture project with GCP to Contextcapture Console

Erick Sanchez — Tue, 12 Dec 2017 19:19:39 GMT

Hello, I have a big project constructed in ContextCapture with 1700 photos and 65 Control points. this points are the refference for a aerial and terrestrial photos and allows us to merge this blocks into one with the same location. After trying to process this project in my pc, I realized that i will take too much time. (I do not have a high end computer).

Also, I have access to the ContextCapture console that allow us to process this pictures a way more faster, but I realized that all the control points are missing from the original photo positions or the original block, because there is no way to upload this information to the console.

Is there any way to pass all the project content to the console without matching all the control points again?

Regards.

Hi,

I am trying to find out about the new CE version of PS. No help file yet on docs.bentley.com? Any vids or blogs on the new features? Particularly interested in the FunctionalComponents and ComponentCenter.

"FunctionalComponents – Easily create libraries of parametric structural shapesfor both reinforced concrete and structural steel by applying user-defined variables and equations. Drag and drop existing components from a library that allowsediting to specification to reduce time and eliminate errors associated with manual input.

ComponentCenter –Easily access structural components for use in design. Integrate with theComponentCenter as a source of content for rebar couplers, terminators, and form savers."

ContextCapture 3MX mesh file into terrain modeler

Erick Sanchez — Fri, 06 May 2016 15:55:56 GMT

Hello, I'm currently working with contextCapture and 3mx files directly into the PowerCivil SS4. At this moment we have a mining project that require some work with surfaces for model platforms and roads into PowerCivil, and also for design a complete workflow from the capture of spatial information data from UAV to the final civil products delivered by PowerCivil.

I can see and manage the 3mx file into PowerCivil, but I can't model any surface with it... it is posible to manage this file without any transformation into the Openroads technology?

Thanks for your help, regards.
