Looking for a way to force Coincident World for attach method, as well as set the default text/leader style.
For coincident world, I have checked that both MS_REF_COINCIDENTWORLD is set to one, as well as MS_REF_DEFAULTSETTINGS has AttachMethod=CoincidentWorld included. I've tried changing that variable to AttachMethod=World, as I've seen also recommended, but it always defaults to "Interactive".
For the styles, I have created text and leader styles I would like to use with every dgn, but I haven't found a way to force those styles as default. Right now, it defaults to Style (none) for both.
Thanks in advance.

For the default text and dimension styles, you have two options. One is to save them to a DGNLIB file and set your configuration to find that file automatically (MS_DGNLIBLIST). They will then be available in every drawing in that workspace, including existing files. You also have the option to save them into your seed file, where they will be available for every drawing created from that seed file. This will not affect existing files.
Once you have set up your styles so that they are available to you, you can use your seed file to set them as the default. Open the seed file, go to the Text Styles dialog and the Dimension Styles dialog, and set your chosen style to Active. Save Settings (not just save) to save these changes to the file. You can do this for a lot of styles and tool settings. You just need to remember to Save Setting.
I don't know about Coincident World...I thought there was a way, but it's possible I am mistaken, or that it's been removed.

Thank you! That helps a lot. The coincident world isn't a big thing, more of a convenience.
