Re: CR Option for Walls to relate to Floor Manager storey height
Steve Cocchi
I'm not Jeff, but then again who is? :) Anyhow... I'll take a stab at it. I think because compound walls can have varying heights, and because those heights are defined in the part definition associated with the catalog item, the catalog property…

Re: Wall Cut Pattern
Jan Šlegr
Can you provide a picture of the result and also how it should be? ... I am not quite sure I understand your situation right :-) The orientation of the cut pattern is driven by "Align hatch to forms" switch, that is available both at Bulding Named…

Re: bentley architecture create views
Jan Šlegr
Hi Claude, how elements in dynamic views are displayed is defined in Clip Volume Settings in View Attributes dialog. I assume you don't use MicroStation saved views but Bentley Architecture Building Named Views, so go to Building View Manager and…

Using Luxology Materials in BA v8i
rklaschka
I have come across a bit of an Achilles heel in the link up between the gorgeous visualisation capability in Luxology. There is no way to creat the necessary material mappings between BA and the Luxology presets. I discussed this with one of the developers…

How to work on XM dataset projects with Bentley Architecture V8i

Is there a way to use the new Bentley Architecture V8i on projects/models created with Bentley Architecture XM datasets? We would like to install the new version for our users, but have concerns on how this works? We are small enough that we can switch…

Re: Determining APPLICATION with variable
Steve Cocchi
That seems to be a dead link... Anyhow, you are correct in that _USTN_TFROOT is a variable in itself, and not a hard coded value. However, it's the program side of the application, not the workspace, so I'd imagine it would be fairly consistent…

Re: Copy graphics (snapshot) from Building View?

Re: 3D, 4D and 5D

I'm not all that familiar with it myself these days, but ProjectWise Navigator should be able to handle the simulation aspect, and (I believe) can read schedules created in Microsoft Project and Primavera P3 (or whatever the current version is). …

Hi emilberger Today i have expose my pb to Bentley and i hope some answer. So the general pb is how to work in 3D in architecture. Make a draw in 3d, no pb (or not yet..lol no). But the pb is to make extraction. With the DEM, many cells are not…

Copy graphics (snapshot) from Building View?

Re: Bentley Architectural and Structural working together?
Steve Cocchi
I guess the best way I can explain it is that you can also place walls (Linear Forms) and Slabs in Structural, you can even place generic PAZs. So those type of objects can be manipulated, at least in a basic manner. But there's nothing in Architecture…

Eric was referring to Building Views, aka, Drawing Views. They are a real time method for doing what you had described. Using Drawing Extractions would require some type of macro/script, but you'd have to be fairly knowledgable to create something…

V8i - reading DWG file wth REVIT data -
Greg Hruby
Can V8i users simply open DWG files with Revit data and read it in the DWG file? It isn't necessary to edit or modify the Revit data in the DWG and it isn't necessary to transfer it to a DGN file. Thanks. Greg

Re: v8i Associated dims possible across dynamic views

Customizing Task Groups in V8i
