Re: Annotations in reference files
Steve Cocchi
I realize that this is an older thread, but if anyone is getting similar results, check whether the folder where the DV file resides is included in MS_RFDIR. It's possible you may be using relative paths instead of absolute, losing the path to the DV…

Re: Copy graphics (snapshot) from Building View?
Jan Šlegr
Well, it is what I expected and what I'd like to avoid :-) The reason is I don't want to maintain 2 different tools with a different workflow and settings at my customer's site. If there will be no solution, it seems to be better to don't use Dynamic…

The current structure of the Parts and Family system seems to be driven by building components. That is why for example There is a CMU in both exterior walls and interior partitions. It would seem to me that an improved system would be to organize the…

Re: Copy graphics (snapshot) from Building View?
Steve Cocchi
Try this... File > Save As > DGN, open the Options dialog, switch to the References tab, then check ON the "Merge Visible Edges of 3D Attachments to Sheets" option. Does that work for what you need?

Re: Automatically update Extractions??
