We're migrating to v8i SS$ and would like to be able to use the XM Triforma annotation tools. Have these been incorporated within the delivered v8i toolset or is there a way to access those old tools?
Thanks for the info Marc,
Here's the rub. We're going from MicroStation with Triforma XM up to just MicroStation SS6 since Triforma was eliminated with the v8i product. It looks like the Triforma annotation tools moved up to ABD but are unavailable in MicroStation. We weren't planning on upgrading to ABD just yet and I was hoping that there were other options than the flag tools in the MicroStation annotation toolbar.
We did take a look at the Connect version when it first came out but decided against it for now.
The tools you are looking for were in the Triforma product and not MicroStation so they would not have been put in the newer editions of MicroStation. Triforma was replaced with Building designer so I would assume that this functionality was moved to ABD.

Ah, OK I missed the obvious aspect of your question! As Tim says, all of the Triforma products were rolled into AECOsim Building Designer so are not available as separate product 'extensions' to MicroStation (currently version SS4). The tools you are familar with will be in AECOsim Building Designer.
