Unable to handle multiple sheet drawings .. ?!

Hi again! At least great to know that I am far from alone struggling with this issue :)

Just to keep you all informed...

I made a CR on this some time ago, but last week a had a remote session with Jutin Jussal from Bentley where I descriped the issue/wish in details supported by example file / illustration.

When he gets back to me I will remember to keep you guys all informed, but meanwhile I recommend that you also submit CR's, as I am not sure that Bentley realy understands how what great improvement that support for multible sheets in ProjectWise would be... :)

You will here from me soon...

If you give us the CR number we can add our names to it.

Mikkel, do you mean DGN projects or are you working in Autocad?

We also would like to be able to have title block integration for multiple sheets in one file - both MicroStation and AutoCAD.

I did a search for the CR but came up empty.  How do I locate the CR and add us to the list.

DGN projects I will say, as we are working in MicroStation with DGN-files (in DGN workmode).

However, the client wants a final package in DWG, so in the end we convert the files.

Because of that, Bentley apparently catogorize the project as a DWG project.

title block integration works for both Microstation and AutoCAD. All you have to do is setup the definitions in the Administrator.  You can bind like definitions to the same fields if you wish.  So I would assume that mulitple sheets working for one would work for the other as well.

Dean,

The issue discussed below relates to having a DGN or DWG file containing multiple titleblocks that need to be populated with different information. This is an issue for both MicroStation and AutoCAD products.

My take on this topic is that, Ideally, Individual ProjectWise Attribute Sheets need to be 'linked' to an identified instance of a Tag Set(or Attribute Block). This would support MicroStation's existing ability to generate multiple cross sections etc.

Obviously if it was always a fixed number of titleblocks, per DGN, several Attribute Exchange definitions could be created i.e. TB1, TB2, TB3..... etc. This however, amongst other issues, would result in redundancy of attributes needed to populate the tags that contain information specific to that instance of the titleblock. Hence it is not a suitable long term solution to the issue.
