Hey all I have never used a script in Bentley before. Can someone point me to a good how to.
I am looking at creating a script to move data, raster image, survey data, line work... that has been sent to me from a client that has their own coordinate system and move it to the DOT coordinate system. My surveyor is just starting to use Bentley software so doesn't know its power and abilities. He has created an awesome script in Civil3d that he can open the clients file drag and drop a script file into civil3d and it grabs everything and it moves, rotates and scales everything in the file. It would be nice to eliminate the step of opening Civil3d, yuck, and applying a script in ORD to do it. How do I do this in ORD? Here is his script for Civil3d.

There are often rules attached to Open Roads data that prevent commands like moving, scaling and rotating of the data. Often these rules must be removed, or you need to use the transform tools within the software.
I have never tried this with Open Roads Survey, so I can't offer any other thoughts.
