Hello all,
I'm trying to create a text substitution that will insert a range of characters from the file name.
For example, I have a dgn named 123_plan.dgn.
My border contains the text $DGNNUMBER$
I have defined a text substitution in my pen table as follows:
Actual Replacement
$DGNNUMBER$ _FILES_
The result, of course, is that if I print 123_plan.dgn with this pen table, I get "123_plan.dgn" in my border in place of "$DGNNUMBER$".
What I'd like to do, is modify the replacement to only part of the filename. What would I need to do in order for the replacement to show "123" instead of "123_plan.dgn"?
Thank you.
I installed that version as well and do not see the system symbol set list as you do not. Is it possible for you to upgrade to 8.11.9.459?
Dawn,
I have IT updating our software library install version, then I will update to 459 and test this. Thanks for sticking with me on this one ;)
Try the following for me to see the Symbol Sets
Open Print Organizer before you open Named Expressions
Thanks Dawn, with updated version of Microstation, that expression did the trick!
Ed, Your procedure added the Printing related symbol sets, but Microstation SS3 8.11.9.397 is still missing all of the System related ones.
where do you put this for it to work during prints
