Hello,
I am new to Microstation V8i SS2.
I need to produce a northing/easting grid and label so that looks like attached image. Preferably have the labels read the correct location versus just typing-in values manually. Is there a way to produce this in Microstaiton?
Email me off line I have a macro I can send you now that does exactly what you want its public domain and we have been using it for years it will produce exactly what you want from two data points one NW corner and the other SE corner and it wants to know what spacing you want then it just does the rest instantly very fast saves lots of time...
you can of course do the same thing by hand but it needs you do yo a little maths to calculate the needed offsets from the edge of borders...

hi Lorys,I ask you for help with the macro theme that you say the grid north, west I searched and do not know where I can do it, if you help me and I would appreciate it.
Thank you very much and I remain attentive to your comments.
its a msnt basic macro so wotn work in connect... run the macro then set text height and grid spacing in the boxes then place a data point in or on the north west corner of the model space shape and again in the south East corner and boom its all done... if your view is roated you may have to reverse the placement order ie what looks like south east first etc...grid.zip
Carlos, as suggested above, you would be able to do this within Bentley Map.

Andrew - How much does that cost?
Lorys- Great catch on the 4 year time warp!

Bob, the cost would depend on the region you are located in. Would suggest you contact your local sales rep.
