In V8i (and all previous versions of Microstation) I have always sorted my references by "Display".
This has always worked in a similar manner to sorting by "Used" in the level display dialog...it keeps the references I am actively using at the top of the list.
In previous versions of Microstation, I could turn a reference off and it would still stay at the top of the list - unless I closed the reference dialog.
However, if I turn a reference off in ORD it instantly reverts back to it's slot order (ie. disappears from the top of the reference list).
This is very frustrating...
Is there a way to make the reference dialog behave like it has always worked in all previous versions from the last 20 years?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks Mary, you're always very helpful
I don't believe they considered the benefit of users in a lot of their decision making for ORD.
I like your idea! I may have to use that.
I suspect that ORD was written to be "smarter" than V8i - not always to the benefit of the users. I'm interested in hearing if anyone has any suggestions, but I'm skeptical there is an answer other than "WAD".
You could always file a service ticket with Bentley Support to request that functionality. Good luck!
