Hello everyone! I'm currently trying to automate the use of the Label Display tool in Bentley Facilities Planner. My goal is to create a script that I could batch run in several files to achieve the mentioned labelling.
I'm using Microstation CONNECT Edition.
I have experience with VBA Macros in Office and LISP in AutoCAD but I'm knew to programming in Microstation so any kind of guidance would be much aprecciated.
Should I use VBA Macros or something else?
How can I find the right commands to automate the use of this tool?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards
Allow me to explain a bit further what I want to accomplish. I wish to create a script to label the rooms of several files according to a template. The general goal is to have each room in each of the files labelled with a room stamp (Microstation Cell/AutoCAD Block) cointaing information of the rooms. This files I will later convert into DWG files. I have created a script to take text files inside polygons in AutoCAD (AutoLISP) and create the room stamps (AutoCAD Blocks with attributes), but for this I need to import the information for each room via labelling as text objects inside the polygons before DWG conversion. Once I achieve this I was also thinking about creating the room stamps entirely in BFP to avoid the use of AutoCAD. What are your thoughts on this? Am I on the right track? Any help would be much aprecciated.
