Could Openroads Designer display side toolbar just like Power Civil? I am not quite familiar with the ribbon interface on ORD, so I want to change back to side toolbar just like what Power Civil looks. See below picture. Some of our customers have the same question.
I searched similar questions, and found that V8i style Tasks could be displayed in MicroStation CONNECT Edition using the configuration variable MS TASKNAVIGATION CONFIGURATION.
The website is: https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/w/microstation__wiki/24481/how-to-display-the-v8i-style-tasks-dialog-in-microstation-connect-edition
And I tried this method on ORD but it did not work. Maybe there is other configuration variable that we could change in order to solve this problem?
Thank you for your help!
Hi, does anyone know why I do not have the "Task Navigation" option available in my workflow list in ORD? it is available and working in plain vanilla Microstation Connect Edition, but for some reason not available in ORD. Both were installed at the same time. I have ORD version 10.08.00.088 Release 1 Update 8. I have seen videos where "Task Navigation" is available in ORD (see image 1) but mine shows as (image 2) I've tried adding the MS_TASKNAVIGATION_CONFIGURATION variable and set to 1, but if, under settings, I choose "Open the Task Navigations user interface" nothing happens. Also should be noted that, under preferences, "Task Navigation" does NOT show up under Category. My only guess is this feature is not supported on my version of ORD? But it works fine on Microstation as mentioned which is weird. Any help would be great as I am a long time Microstation InRoads user and miss this feature in ORD.
Does anyone know how to get the "Task Navigation" workflow to be available in ORD (image 1)
Is it not supported in my version 10.08.00.088 Release 1 Update 8.

They just released a new version a few days ago and according to the What's New readme, it is finally fixed and available. But the number of tools offered is the question. No Open Roads tools are supplied - they are all in the Ribbon. As far as MicroStation tools, You will have to upgrade and try it out. This version also includes a method to roll a file back to an earlier version, making it less problematic to move to a newer version. Notice I don't say it solves the problem, as when this happens, its usually someone on the older version who can't open the file, but the tool to roll back is in the version that can open the file as is.

Yes, ORD 2020 Release 3 Update 9 (who invented such complicated naming?) offers V8i task theme.

That's right: V8 task navigation contains MicroStation tools only. All civil tools remain in ribbon.
