SELECTseries 3 and Workspaces

I received a tip last week from Derricke Gray on a good idea for additional Project Settings - Design Stages.  We added 4 new design stages to the Bentley-Civil Example Workspace that will be available in our next release.  We added one for Top Mesh Only, Bottom Mesh Only, Linear Features Only, and Components Only.  These are all Final design stages and make it a lot easier to get the correct information for machine control and terrain model creations.  If you want an updated copy you can get it here.  Note the paths are setup for Power GEOPAK, but it works for PG, PI, Inroads and GEOPAK Suite and MX.  Just update the files that were delivered with your install after unzipping.

Note, as we continue to update our example workspace I will continue to update this thread.  Note, the posted link will be good for a few weeks.

Thanks,

Chuck

Hi Chuck -

The link is dead already.  Can you repost a new one? 

Thanks.

Yes, universal for Power Inroads and or using with layered Suite application.

A few more enhancements for you to check out in a new test build of the Bentley-Civil Examples workspace.  These additional enhancements came after meeting with NCDOT.  They had a few minor but excellent enhancements I have added.

1. I made an element template to use for placing a superelevation section.  Because the active MicroStation symbology is always used, this makes it much easier for the user to set the active symbology to the correct attributes.

2.  Increased the line weight for the Corridor Border.  Just a reminder it is on a Construction class which makes it easy to turn on and off.

3.  Added a new Project Setting Design Stage called “0 - Functional”.  This design stage has the original settings we used for “1 – Preliminary”.  Then the Preliminary Design Stage was changed to use a template drop multiplier of 5 instead of 10.  Also, I have enabled the chord stroking and cardinal points.  This just makes more sense from a designer stand point.

4.  Reassigned the F7 function key to toggle on and toggle off the Construction Class elements in the active DGN view.  This allows a quick way to turn on and off the corridor and template drop boundaries in the visible view as well as anything else assigned as a “Construction Class”.

Here is a new test version for those adventurous ones working on workspaces.

1. The display style used for the slope thematic display for terrains had too many angle values and the colors were not very logical or easy to understand.  So I made a guess at what might make more sense.  Now if anyone has some better ideas to make this even more useful, please let me know.

2. The point features were not plotting properly.  I made some changes to make them work a little better.  They are not perfect yet as we need a couple of software enhancements, but they are better and seem useful now.

The link listed will be good for a couple of weeks.  As always feedback is most appreciated.

Thanks

Chuck

The link will be good for a couple of weeks.  I will work on a more permanent link once I return to the office.

Thanks

The link posted on 10-14-2013 does not work.  Do you have a new link?

Please try again....I put it in a location where it will not get purged after a period of time.  Sorry for the confusion.

These should be put in the Files area and updated there as needed.

I tried that but apparently the zipped file is too large.  Need to check into this...
