When using the sheet creation tool you select a sheet seed that comes from the sheet seed dgnlib files. Generally for our clients I see these in the Organization-Civil folder and use the MS_DGNLIBLIST variable to point at them. Is it possible to use something like MS_DGNLIBLIST_DRAWINGSEEDS instead and not use MS_DGNLIBLIST at all?
The reason I ask is while most projects will use the sheet seeds from Organization-Civil location sometimes they need to be modified for a project. In this scenario we will copy the sheet seed folder to the _USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDS folder, but we run into issues using MS_DGNLIBLIST to point at them. Since the workset.cfg can't remove paths from MS_DGNLIBLIST, if I just add the project ones via MS_DGNLIBLIST the user will see all the sheet seeds. If I could use MS_DGNLIBLIST_DRAWINGSEEDS then I set it in Organization-Civil, but I can override in workset.cfg by just doing MS_DGNLIBLIST_DRAWINGSEEDS = $(_USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDS)Dgnlib/Sheet Seed/*.dgnlib
That's for when you create sheet using the New Model tool, I'm talking about the Create Drawing tool. It uses dgnlib files, not dgn. If you check that same file you should have a entry:
MS_DGNLIBLIST > $(CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_STANDARDS)dgnlib/Sheet Seeds/*.dgnlib
or if you aren't using them, check the Organization-Civil that ships with ORD, should be in the dgnlib/Sheet Seed/ folder in there.
