WorkSet template in AECOsim CE

Hello,

I have created a new WorkSpace in AECOsim Connect Edition

Now, I create the first WorkSet, but the template is "None"

The _USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDSUBDIRS variable create the empty folders.

I need BB_FloorMaster.dgnlib in the .. \ Standard \ dgnlib folder

Question 1:
How do I do it? Do I have to manually add the files (floorMaster.dgnlib, etc) when I create the first Workset?

Question 2:
The program creates Design, Output folders but I need the Drawings, Sheet and other folders. View image.

How do i do?  Is it possible in the first Workset to find another template in another folder off the Wokspace?

Thank you

Joaquín

  • Hi Joaquin,

    Out of the box the delivered WorkSets will be available as templates. Once a custom Workspace is added these will not be available as the variable specifying the template location looks in the active workspace unless modified:

    _USTN_WORKSETTEMPLATE = $(_USTN_WORKSPACESROOT)Template\WorkSet.Template.

    The variable _USTN_WORKSETTEMPLATE can be used to specify a custom location for your own WorkSet Templates.

    The following configuration was suggested by one of our users (DavidG) in the MicroStation forum to direct the location back to the delivered Workspace/WorkSets, this could be used to specify an organization location:

    MY_TEMPLATE_DIR = $(_USTN_INSTALLED_CONFIGURATION)/WorkSpaces/Template/

    _USTN_WORKSPACETEMPLATE = $(MY_TEMPLATE_DIR)WorkSpace.Template

    _USTN_WORKSETTEMPLATE = $(MY_TEMPLATE_DIR)WorkSet.Template

    I'll look further into this. As it is a Technology Preview we may have improvments in the pipeline.

    Regards

    Marc

  • Hello Marc

    These variables copy the <NameWokSpace> .cfg and <NameWorkSet> .cfg to the new WorkSpace and the new WorkSet, but this variable does not copy the folder template with files.

    The list of template is "None".

    To do this, folder templates with file templates they must be in the WorkSet not in other folder.

    The problem is the first WorkSet because the folder is empty and the list of template is "None".

    Thank you
