handles for ref files in connect edition

In microstation connect edition, when placing a reference file, how do you show the handles for manipulation, can do it in V8i but can't fathom how to do it in Connect edition?

  • that doesn't work either, not that you need that on anyway, in microstation v8i you don't need that for the handles to appear, you just need to ensure it is in presentation mode before you insert the reference

  • Sounds like a bug, hard to think of a reason why it would be purposely changed to require that.

  • Works for me in CONNECT. Do you have Treat Reference as Element Enabled? If you don't then the selection tool will only select individual elements within the reference.

  • Yeah I do.  I think it's a bug as I've not been updated to the latest Connect version yet.  I couldn't get it to work without first selecting something other than none.

  • Chances are that its a known issue and was fixed in Update 16.

  • This works the same in Power InRoads SS2 as it does for CONNECT U15 for me. I either need to have the reference Hilte Mode set to something other than None or have Treat Attachment as Element enabled to be able to edit the clip boundary.
