HI,
we have company standards and project settings.
Haw to add a project grid template to use in the grid manager.
I have copied the company standard grid template to the project "BB_Floormaster.dgnlib" and renamed and changed it a little (so floors, grid, and templates are in 1 project dgnlibI've added the BB_Floormaster.dgnlib in the variable: BB_GRID_TEMPLATE_DGNLIB < $(BB_FLOORMASTER_DGN) (in the workset cfg)variable explorer shows both
but now non of the "grid templates" are available,not the company standard, not the project
can BB_GRID_TEMPLATE_DGNLIB handle only one dgnlib?
if I change " BB_GRID_TEMPLATE_DGNLIB = $(BB_FLOORMASTER_DGN) (overwrite)the new template can be used
regards Rik
Hi Rik,
You should have received a reply via the SR you filed, but for anyone else reading the thread...
We recommend storing the Grid Template content in a separate DGNLIB to the BB_FloorMaster.dgnlib. Each project can only have one floor master DGNLIB.
The default location of the Grid Template content is C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Datasets\Dataset_xx\Dgnlib\GridTemplate.dgnlib defined by BB_GRID_TEMPLATE_DGNLIB in C:\Program Files\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\OpenBuildingsDesigner\config\appl\BuildingDesigner.cfg.
You can either redefine this path to point only to your custom file using '=' or use either '<' or '>' to add your custom file to the delivered (which might be helpful for compatibility with existing files?). I tested by adding to my WorkSet CFG:
BB_GRID_TEMPLATE_DGNLIB < $(_USTN_WORKSETROOT)Standards/dgnlib/GridTemplate_2.dgnlib
