In Microstation v8i I have an mdl app called SWA that drew a rectangle (in 2d or a cube in 3d) showing the extent of the solid working area. Does anyone know a way of doing this in Connect? It's really useful for explaining to people why they are having problems with geometry that's way outside the SWA.
Thanks
Duncan
Brilliant. Now I understand. Thanks Brian. That's what I'm proposing to do.
For some more in depth information regarding the SWA you may find the following articles useful:

David,
The two links you provided refer to rather outdated information with regards to SWA (15+ years old).
The explanations from Brien Bastings are much more up to date and relevant to the current implementation of the SWA.
