    • Resizeable Dialogboxes, time for it now

      Hello Bentley. I think Jeffery Ashley at Bentley could answer to this question. For all times Bentley products didnt have standardized Dialogboxes. It would really save time, money and headace if you could make all dialogboxes resizable and have…

      Hi Andreas, The problem is not related to the Dataset you are using, but to your Architectural preferences working units. If you go to the Architectural Preferences inside AECOsim, you have the option to specify the Unit you want to use for Area Measure…

    • Controlling Orientation for Space Labels

      Is there a way of controlling the orientation of labels for spaces? I have been placing spaces in a building that is at an angle to the global origin and despite setting up floor manager to take account of this angle the labels persist in aligning themselves…

      Hi, I have this problem with the V8i version. Once I draw spaces in extracted drawings, I can delete the text, but not the boundary...and the layer is not locked. I can only delete it after exploding it, but this is not convenient. Somebody…

      Hi André, in 8.5.2 I believe the space unit value is stored in annotationoverrides.rsc under the home/prefs folder. Make sure you have proper read/write access to this file & folder. I did notice that the value doesn't seem to "refresh" itself…

      Once they are placed they are "instances" and will have the symbology that the part definiton had when it was placed. After the definiton is changed, use the "Apply Part" tool for instances of spaces already in the model. Select "Apply Part", set the…

      Check whether a Space Label is defined in the Annotation Tool Settings dialog.

      Matt and I went over this issue "off-line" from the forums, thought I would share our findings back out here. Turns out the fix for having the space labels appear on top of the rendered spaces was to adjust the update sequence of the reference files…

      This a simple question that I'm hoping has a simple answer! I'm trying to get my the annotation cells for my spaces to display the drawn area of the room in m², but have no idea how to do this. Please help! TIA Alex Shovelton

      If you want the label in the 3D model - which seems to make sense in your particular case - try using the Datagroup Annotation tool. That should place the applicable label as defined in the Annotation Settings dialog, and will remove the artifact.

      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. ?

      Yes, I agree, the sequence of steps is different than the norm... no doubt. We do have a few existing Change Requests along these same lines... such as: CR # 180900: Users want to modify shape of space which is created by Flood area option…

      You'll need to create a new *.xsd schema file with the applicable properties, then attach that to the Space Catalog Item in the DataGroup Catalog Editor. Once you do that, the new properties should display for all space Catalog Items. The delivered…

      I'm not sure how practical this will be for your specific scenario, but if you select those "unwanted" elements prior to starting the Create Space tool, and check ON the "Ignore Selection Set" option in the dialog, it should do exactly that - ignore the…

      I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're trying to do, but, you could add properties to the Space schema (xsd file), create a space label with those properties added, and then use level control to dispay only the relevant portions of the label for…

      Choose Workspace > Preferences > Bentley Building > Auto Dimensions Font Size. This controls the size of the artifact in Bentley Architecture.

      Who... me? ;-) 1) As Eric stated, the active Drawing Scale is designed to affect the size of the space label. I haven't used 8.5.2 in quite some time so I had to go back and check, but it did in fact change the label - as long as I accepted the…
