    Customizing Drawing Information Labels

    Product(s): ProSteel
    Version(s): CONNECT Edition
    Environment: N/A
    Area: General
    Subarea: Labels Customization
    Original Author Sandip Kar, Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Overview

    In ProSteel there is Drawing Information Table where user can put project Information and then those Data can be fetched to 2D Drawing Block. Sometime user need to customize the Labels of that Table according to their need. Below is an Example showing some of the labels need to change.



    This document will explain how to customize the labels in drawing Information Table.

    Method

    Please follow below steps to get this done.

    1. The labels can be changed by modifying the "PsDrawingInfoLabels.ini"  which generally exists in 
        "Data:\Program Files\Bentley\ProStructures CONNECT Edition\ProStructures\Default\appl\Data"

    2. But ProSteel read the ini file located under Program Data. So you need to copy the .ini file from the location mentioned here to the following location
        "Data:\ProgramData\Bentley\ProStructures CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\USA_Canada_Metric\Standards\ProStructures\Data"


    3. After copying the file, open the file in Notepad and change the labels as per your requirement.

            

    You can see here Project name is changed to job Name, Project No is changed to Job No and Comment 1 is changed to remarks 1.

    4. After changing, save this file and restart your ProSTructures and open the Drawing Information Table. You will find all the changed labels there.

    In this way one can easily change the Labels in Drawing Information table.
