It would be nice if I could make MicroStation bypass the following user prompted dialog, but only for a dgn file that is set as read-only in the Windows OS and not for the entire Session.
I am thinking of something that logically would perform this (the below command string doesn't actually work):
Echo Y | "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\PowerMap V8i\PowerMap\powermap.exe" -ws_PM_REGION=N C:\AMOSS\GIS_DATA_N\DGN\work.dgn
That is, the capability to set an option like "/Y" so that the above shortcut command opens the file with a "Yes" and the end-user doesn't need to click Yes for every file...
I dont know power products..
But I know 2 ways in Microstation V8i
1, Dont use Windows explorer to open DGN files use mstn icon then when the Microstation Manage pops up you can set it to Read only
2. Copy the mstn Icon and edit the short cut \ustation.exe /R"
- A) then you can drag and drop from windows explorer onto the modified icon
or
B) just click the modified icon and browse to your file .
With option 2 you cannot untick the read only mode..
There also is a mode for dont load reference attachments search ask inga..
