Hi
Is there a variable to set the default directory for exporting DWG-files to in Microstation connect? I've search trough this list but I can't seem to find it: https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/w/microstation__wiki/24873/microstation-connect-edition-configuration-variables
For IFC it's: IFC_EXP_OUT and for DGN it's MS_DGNOUT but it seems there no equivalent for exporting DWG:s.
Regards,
Robert
ms_dwgout is not a valid variable.
_USTN_OUT is the directory used to dictate which location exported DWGs are sent to, as well as other files.
An option you may want to use is to define a custom variable like MS_DWGOUT and when exporting you can quickly jump to that location by using the variable:
Depending on the version of Windows it may be faster to add the desired output folder to the Windows Quick Access as well.

Hmm, ok. If I look at it in the configuration varibles dialog it looks like this. Like like it's not really follwing. But it might does, don't know.
When a variable is set to a folder location the expansion should end in a "/" to dictate that it is a folder not a file that is being looked for.
My export file dialog doesn't have that directory tab. And even if it did, it's much easier to use the config. variable to point to the defalut DWG export folder. Why take it away?
