    How to Review AutoPLANT Objects inside Bentley Raceway and Cable Management

      Product(s): Bentley Raceway and Cable Management
      Version(s): CONNECT Edition (10.xx.00.xx)
      Environment: N/A
      Area: N/A
      Subarea: N/A
      Original Author: Aadarsh Tale

    Background

    In the AutoCAD file format several standard object/element definitions are available, such as lines, texts, etc. Autodesk allows application developers to create additional object definitions to better suit their application (you may think of them as "smart objects"). Such additional objects are called Custom Objects, when their object enablers are present and Proxy Objects when their object enablers are missing.

    In order to display custom objects the related application Object Enabler needs to have been installed on a RealDWG host program such as AutoCAD or MicroStation. Note that an enabler is not required to open a DWG file. When an enabler is missing, the file still opens, and its custom objects become proxy objects and the graphics are not as desired.

    For example:


    Object enablers require an equivalent 32bit or 64bit CAD application Bentley Raceway and Cable Management CONNECT Edition is a 64bit application. You need to install the appropriate object enabler based on the corresponding version of power platform i.e MicroStation being used.

    Object enablers are also AutoCAD version/year specific. For example: if you are running AutoCAD 2019 or MicroStation with 2019 RealDWG you need to install the 2019 Object Enablers. Installing a different version/year object enabler will not work.

    Steps to Accomplish

    1. Open the file you are currently working.
    2. Open the Key-in tool, type Version and run.




    3. Check Power Platform Version details and what version of RealDWG it is using in the Message Center as shown below:


    4. Since, RealDWG is used by the product, it is advisable to install the compatible Object Enabler
      For example: in previous steps, Bentley Raceway and Cable Management is using RealDWG 2021 and hence, it is recommended to install the AutoPLANT Object Enablers for AutoCAD Update 3, which supports the AutoCAD 2021.

      Important Note: It is advisable to remove the previous installer and then do fresh installation to avoid any further problem. Also Keep one installer at a time in a machine.



    5. Notice that the piping objects which were not rendered properly are rendered perfectly now:
