Re: bentley architecture create views
Steve Cocchi
I'm guessing that the view attributes are set to Filled Hidden Line or similar. Check either in that model or in the DV definition.

Re: 3D Solids from BA
Steve Cocchi
You can try using the keyin CONVERT BREP to convert the element to a SmartSolid. I'm not sure whether that will work for all elements, but it should do the trick in most cases.

Re: PCS doors - How do you change the line style of the hinge/swing indicator?
Steve Cocchi
Exactly. Attach a part & family attribute to the applicable 2D symbol(s) within PCS. That way they'll inherit those attributes when placed in Architecture. Assuming the same families and parts are available, of course. :)

Re: multiline labels for annotation cells to DG
Steve Cocchi
This sounds like Change Request # 246555: Would like a "Word Wrap" type feature for Space Labels to force a second line of text if the property's value exceeds the specified maximum line length. ?

Re: XM: Catalog Information Not Appended
Steve Cocchi
This probably is something better suited to an more in-depth support review, but... typically that message means that there's something "out of sync" in the DataGroup System. IOW, the door was placed with one set of DG data, which by editing time has…

Re: microstation Ss1 v08.11.07.171
Steve Cocchi
Technically.... yes, I'm guessing that combination would install and load up just fine. However, be aware that it's *not* a tested and certified combination, therefore we cannot officially support it. Since the SELECT Series 1 version is much…

Re: Why I can not active PC Studio in Bentley Architecture?
Steve Cocchi
"This worked - didn't work - and now does work in the current version." Correct. The PAZ Edit In Place function did not work correctly in BA 08.11.05.xx, but was resolved in 08.11.07.xx.

Re: Definitions in arch_roles.cfg from 10/07/2008 version
Steve Cocchi
As I understand it, the archroles.cfg file simply provides "out of the box" values, since you can't have previously selected anything at that point. Once you have selected different parts, those MRU values should be the values retained by each tool.

Re: Surface Pattern applied to object via Family/Part attributes?

Re: Edit multiple Triforma Element Information

Ah... That makes sense. While IFC (as a format) is able to translate non-graphic attributes that describe what an object is - a door, window, wall, beam, etc - it does not provide the ability to translate or store *parametric* properties because every…
