I have set up on advanced text style line length to 150, but it's not wrapping up the text to a new line. If I use the selection tool set to single and select the text I don't see the edit handles. Using Microstation V8i SS10. Thank you!
Do you have the handles disabled in the Selection Settings Dialog?
Microstation CONNECT 10.17.00.209
ORD CONNECT 2021 R1 10.10.1.3
Microstation v8i SS 10 08.11.09.919
Power InRoads v8i 08.11.09.615
ProjectWise 10.0.3.453
I enable the handles, but still line length of 150 format is not working.
What version are you using? You state CONNECT is not compatible with NYSDOT and you were using SS4 when it worked. So are you using SS10?
I don't have SS10, but in v8i you select the place text tool and switch the placement method to Word Wrap
Yes, I'm using V8i (SELECTseries 10) Version 08.11.09.919, and I selected Method: Word Wrap, and it didn't work.
Thank you!
Can you be more specific about "It didn't work"? What is not working? What are you expecting to work that not working?
When Place a Text, it's set up in Text Style Line Length to 150. When you're typing and reach 150 length, It's suppose to automatically goes to the next line, likewise in Word document, and it is not doing it.
That's sort of the point of word wrap. The nice thing about word wrap is that you can type text in a line as long as you want until it hits the end of the initial border defined. After you are done you can drag the extents to cut the lines off wherever it suits and all subsequent lines adjust accordingly. If you are placing a standard size text you can create a cell of the appropriate size boundary to establish the 150 length. You can use this to draw your word wrap extents. There really is no need to set the text length to 150. As I stated previously, I believe the intent is to deprecate the line length setting and that is why it is not available in the change attributes dialog. Like most of Bentley's legacy settings & tools, they leave it available for legacy work.
I would suggest adopting the word wrap text placement.
