Hello fellow InRoads Users,
Im about to begin the process of updating some InRoads cells that we have been using for some time and I would like to take advantage of MicroStation functionality in MS-SS2, specifically Annotation cells.
The limited testing that I have done seems to work with text assigned a text style within a cell, but I haven't had much luck with just assigning a cell to be an annotation cell.
My workflow is to place features such as EOP, ROW, Building face labels and etc... at an InRoads scale factor of 1 (one) and let MicroStation annotation scale handle the scaling. I have a cell set as an annotation cell for testing. It places correctly outside of InRoads,but not when placed by InRoads.
Have any of you had any luck with this?
Thanks in advance for your input.
Chuck
Chuck, my current workflow is to display the cells out of InRoads at a scale of one. Then select all cells and apply the MicroStation keyin "annotationscale add" Then the cells will work with annotation scale.
That's a great tip, Bob!
Thanks
Regards

Thanks for your responses....
Our current workflow is still workable & efficient. I hate to change things up for just the limited number cells that I was hoping to change. I'll just stay the course and make the change when the functionality becomes available..
Thanks to all again for your responses
