What controls the project explorer setting. Every time I close the MicroStation application and restart, my Project Explorer setting are reset to show only Links & File but I need to see and use the Civil Model and Civil Standards tab on a regular basis so I am continually turning them back on. What causes, this and how can I set them and save the settings?
I found what is causing the issue for the civil Browsers in the Project Explore. The project explore setting for the Civil Browsers are not remembered if you open a Straight MicroStation Application session with out the InRoads application session also activated.
This seems like a glitch. I use InRoads often. I do not use it every time I open every Design file. Typically I will open InRoads once and use straight MicroStation in multiple Sessions. So a typical work session would be to open one InRoads and possible 2 other Design Files with straight MicroStation. Sometime even MicroStation only sessions no InRoads.
With this, process each time I will need to go into the Project Explore and toggle back on the Civil Model and Civil Standards etc if I need them witch is most of the time if using InRoads, this process of toggling on the browsers also closes the Project Explore dialog meaning the user would need to reopen it also.
I assume this would not be an issue with Power Civil.

it remembers the last setting, just like other settings in microstation. it is possible that it could not update your upf

It does seem to work when I use the civil-imperial workspace. And now that I have open up the application using the civil-imperial workspace it also seem to work in my workspace. So I guess the issues was resolved, still not sure what caused the issue. Is this intended to be a user preference in the upf?
are you using a custom workspace, can you try with one of the ones we provide, civil-imperial?
This happens in every DGN each time I close MicroStation and reopen I am back to the explorer only showing Links & File.
