Hello all,
I am fairly new to OpenRoads and would like to create a workspace (on my local drive) because OpenRoads is slow while using projectwise.
Also, for some reason I do not have the program data folder in my C drive.
If there is a helpful pdf out there, please let me know where I can find it.
Related Questions:
How do I create a worskpace where my projectwise files can be exported to?
How do I add the dgn libraries/ (containing feature definitions & line styles & etc.)?
How do I create a workset or is that per file?
Thank You.
1. Program Data folder - check to see if the View setting 'Hidden Items' in File Explorer is off.
2. Your WorkSpace can be placed wherever you want it to be - you would just need to set the configuration variable _USTN_CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION to point to it in the file 'ConfigurationSetup.cfg.
3. DGNLIB are placed in the relevant folder in the WorkSpace e.g. dgnlib\Line Styles.
4. A WorkSet is a 'project' - each WorkSet would contain as many files as are needed in the project.
However, if you are using ProjectWise, I would assume that your WorkSpace is set up there, and making your copy of it will create an unmanaged WorkSpace. Is that really a good idea? OpenRoads Designer should not be slower just because you are using ProjectWise (other than first use when it needs to get the WorkSpace data),
Thank you.
For those wondering how to configure projectwise & open roads here is a link to a PDF.

Hi Mark.
I am not able to find the file "ConfigurationSetup.cfg" at the Installation folder and I am also having the same issues trying to set a Workspace folder where all my projects are created.
I followed all the steps shown in this learning path: https://learn.bentley.com/app/VideoPlayer/LinkToIndividualCourse?LearningPathID=109983&CourseId=115796&MediaID=5007190
and everytime I try to create a new User and Project, MicroStation points to C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\PowerCivil V8i (SELECTSeries 4)\WorkSpace instead the folder I set in the .cgf file I created specifically for my Projects.
Thnaks.
WIth OpenRoads Designer, there is no 'User' in the configuration, and it looks like you are running PowerCivil SS4, NOT OpenRoads Designer.
SS4 workspaces are not set up in the same way as CONNECT Edition workspaces. Please verify what software you are using.
