Detailing symbols upgraded V8 XM to V8i
I'm trying to place detailing symbols after upgrading to V8i, but I'mfinding that the tools work differently than I was used to in V8 XM.How can I customize the Detailing symbols to suit my needs? Thetoolbox in V8 XM is Tools > Annotation > Detailing Symbols.
Those tools have been completely removed from MicroStation. Instead,use the new Detailing Symbol tools (found under Tools > DetailingSymbols), and create your own custom Detailing Symbol Styles (Element >Detailing Symbol Styles). This process is explained in the Help fileunder Contents > Composing Drawings > Drawing Composition Workflow >Placing Detailing Symbols.
