Bentley View V8 and Bentley View Connect Edition

Hi Ken-t,

KEN-T said:

do we have a PDF or video tutorial?

Here you'll have a link to a PDF to help, and here you can see some videos regarding Bentley View.

KEN-T said:

when the new version will be available

It's under Future Consideration, so I hope we'll see something about this in a near future.

KEN-T said:

will it have similar measuring and extended viewing capabilities

I believe we don't have to worry about this part, as this as been integrated since the origins.

KEN-T said:

be able to view Display Rules

We hope that when the new Bentley View comes out will have that (and more) capabilites like Bentley View Connect Edition had.

Hello Jose,

Thanks for your reply, I have since found out that my clients (oil co.) IT dept. has stopped offering Bentley View V8 as a download for their staff to use on their respective portals, instead they are using Autodesks Navisworks, shame really, as I don't think that this product is ideal for engineers and draughtsmen (client side) for obtaining accurate dimensional information. I think Bentley took their eye off the ball with the Bentley View utility.

This is the same situation here in much of the Australian market (sydney anyway) 

And a number of other things, hence the dominance of Revit in the UK, in a market that Bentley had sown up.
