In the "Update 14! What's New in MicroStation CONNECT Edition" video, there is a segment for "Copy and Edit a geography coordinate system"

See here:

However, I do not see an option to edit the coordinate systems.

  • The following documentation in the MicroStation CONNECT Edition (Update 14) help documentation shows how you can edit the coordinate system properties.

    To Create and Edit a User Coordinate System

    1. First, copy an existing coordinate system, paste it in the user library and edit the copy.
    2. CAUTION: MicroStation does not let you edit any of the coordinate systems in the delivered library; rather, you copy an existing coordinate system, paste it in the user library and edit the copy.
    3. Locate the coordinate system to edit, or one that is similar to the one to add.
    4. Right-click the coordinate system entry and select Copy.
    5. Select the User library in the Geographic Coordinate System dialog and select Paste.

      A copy of the selected coordinate system is pasted into the user library.

      Note: Coordinate system names must be unique and cannot exceed 23 characters. It must contain at least one letter A to Z. It can contain any uppercase or lowercase letters, any digit from 0 to 9 or one of the following characters: _-$:.;~/ or spaces. Characters with accents or diacritic remarks are not permitted. Cases sensitive names are allowed but names must be unique when compared as uppercase.
    6. To rename, select the coordinate system, right-click and select Edit Coordinate Systems Properties.


    7. A dialog displays allowing you to edit the name or other properties. Click OK when finished.
