This MicroStation Coffee Corner focuses on the new and improved text tools in MicroStation CONNECT. With a simplified and more user-friendly interface, placing text is now easier and more efficient than ever before.

Did you know that MicroStation CONNECT can now place intelligent tables right in the DGN file? Did you know that you can save text favorites for repeated use over and over? Come to this Coffee Corner to find out how to:

  • Utilize the enhanced Place Text and new Place Text Along tools
  • Create text favorites
  • Associate text to elements
  • Place a table

As our models get more and more complex, annotations have never been more important. Understanding how to make the most of the text tools in MicroStation is critical for successful collaboration and project delivery.


Let’s learn together what it takes to make MicroStation work for you when it comes to annotating your designs. MicroStation Coffee Corners are open to all Bentley users, free of charge. One learning unit is applied to each participant’s Bentley Transcript for self-reporting. To view prior sessions, watch the Recordings On-Demand.
