searching feature definitions

Hello!

I was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to search feature definitions so that users can place geometry from a short list instead of a long one that is very drilled down.  Similar to the way we could use the level description search in V8i?

Thanks.

  • But that's pretty much what you suggested. Our projects can have a lot of different "types" of work - drainage, environmental, roadway, bridge, site, etc. Even if we "streamlined" our DGNLIBLIST to "just" the project, we would still have to sift through nearly all our feature definitions. The only way to filter out the rest (If I'm working on the road) by your suggestion would be to create different worksets by department within that project.

    I second the request for feature definition searching/sorting/filtering.

  • we have fairly straightforward tree structure, emulating mostly what was delivered.  I'm just wondering for users who will undoubtedly ask how to search when they choose the wrong one and it doesn't plot, or run earthwork, etc.  I love the idea of a searchable field or filter.

    Thanks everyone.
