I need to develop a custom WorkSet creation tool as there aren't enough options in the MicroStation dialog to suit the needs of my client. They would like project/WorkSet creation to be done by an Office Assistant without the need for MicroStation. Copying and renaming a template WorkSet.cfg and WorkSet.dgnws to the correct WorkSet name works except when in comes to the Sheet Index.
When I open the Sheet Index it has the name of the original template WorkSet name, and all of the editing options are missing.
In the example below project 1 was then name of the template WorkSet. I created a WorkSet called project 2 by copying and renaming all of the project 1 files to project 2, including the .dgnws file. The image below is what the Sheet Index looks like in project 2.
I've verified the _USTN_WORKSETDGNWS variable, and setting custom WorkSet properties that the project 2.dgnws file is being accessed.
Is there any way to update the Sheet Index?
At the suggestion of Bentley support I cleared my user preferences by using the -RestoreDefaults switch when launching MicroStation.
Now the Sheet Index looks like this...
I get tool icons, just not the right ones.
