• Item Type information does not display in Properties with Parametric Cell

    Not sure if this is by design or a bug, but item type information placed at the model level for parametric cells do not display in the Element Properties panel unlike other cell types. I can still access the information by clicking on the item in the…
  • Building parametric library for steel beams

    Hi All, I'm trying to build a parametric steel beam cell library in order to improve productivity. My first profile works perfectly when it comes to 2D. I can switch between all the variations - No problem. When it comes to make the cross section…
  • MS CE U14 - 2D Parametric Cell - Seed file

    Hi All, Am I correct in thinking the only way to create a 2D parametric cell it to use a 3D Seed file and only use 2D graphics. The 'Cell Type' is grayed out to graphic when using the Bentley supplied 2D Metric Seed. Thanks, MS CE U14 10.14…
  • Parametric Cells Made Easy! (especially those cells that have a ton of variations)

    With the right workflow, creating a parametric cell library is pretty simple. After you've created your parametric cell with constraints, the best way to add the variable and variations is to import the values. Some of the cells have a massive variation…
  • Parametric Cell Libraries - Slow to Load

    I have been creating parametric cell libraries and they seem extremely slow to load from the library. Is there some way to increase the speed that they are loaded from the library into the file? It takes approximately 30 seconds to a minute for a cell…
  • Bug with Parametric Cells

    Hey everyone, This is an informational post regarding bug initially found in OpenBridge Modeler release 10.08.2.45. The reason it's being put in the MicroStation forum is that the bug is seemingly an issue with the underlying MicroStation Platform …
