  • Using Functional Components in OpenBridge Modeler

    To place either functional components (parametric cells) or regular MicroStation cells onto supportlines, use the following steps. 1. OpenBridge Modeler installs some sample functional cells as part of the product installation. By default these are…
  • Creating Functional Components for use in OpenBridge Modeler

    The basic steps to consider when creating Functional components for use as substructure components in OBM are listed below: Note: We suggest you use OpenBridge Modeler to create your parametric cell/functional component. Remember to switch to the Modeling…
  • Functional Components as substructure components in OBM

    Functional Components give you a degree of flexibility which is not possible with conventional 3D tools. Parametric modeling allows complex elements to be edited easily without the need to be manually rebuilt. The Functional Components enablement in MicroStation…
