Control how the views appear when opening model
When using the Previous Model, Next Model, or All Models Visited buttons in MicroStation V8 XM Edition, you may find these keystrokes a cool way of controlling how the models open. No keystrokes - Opens the selected model with the views as they were left in the current session. SHIFT key - Opens the selected model with the views as they were the last time that File > Save Settings was chosen. ALT key - Opens the selected model with the views as they are in the current model.

Notice how the same models now have fitted views when they're re-opened using the SHIFT key. This is how the views of these models were last saved.
