In the geo_example_dialogs sample workspace, the "My_custom_geo_tools" Tool Group has been defined with a ".tax" File Extension criteria as seen in the following: Because of this those tools would only appear if you open a design file that ends…

Greetings Doug, Could you please provide a copy of your schema for further analysis? If you prefer, please use these instructions to post a copy of the schema in an archive on our FTP site.

Morten, Using the attached db1.xml schema, could you perform the following: Create an ODBC DSN named mytown that points to the delivered mytown.mdb database file. Using the Bentley Geospatial Administrator application, open db1.xml schema…

...you should be able to define an additional initial value entry (Key: read |Value type:envvar|Value:USR_B) in your property definition to accomplish this.

...in the delivered geo_example.xml sample schema, you can reference the "Address" feature class for examples of using "Property Watchers" and criteria to perform domain list changes. Regards, Jeff Bielefeld [Bentley]

Adam, In the delivered geo_example_designer workspace and provided geo_example.xml schema, take a look at the Count1Xml business property of the TelcoCable feature class which uses a Grid along with a few ComboBox properties.

Nick, Without a bit of custom programming, there is no automatic way to update the business properties which represent the coordinates. You can use the FENCE FEATURE RESET ALL keyin or icon command to update the values for all feature instances within…

Alan, Unfortunately there is no automatic way to sort "Command Manager" or "Forms" entries at this time. A few workarounds come to mind though which are: Manual editing of the MainMenu.xml metadata file which contains the domain list used…

Tom, I crafted an XSLT which can be run using the "File > Report > Run..." command in the Bentley Geospatial Administrator to produce this feature report, which includes symbology information. Does it have what you need? If so I can provide the XSLT…

Erik, Using the provided schema and design file, I'm not seeing the described behavior but rather the following: Are you certain the workspace has been (re)exported and Bentley Map session restarted after any schema and/or symbology changes?

...the unsupported keyin ggcaches reload all override is provided for development purposes only and should never be used during production workflows. As you note, during schema development using the Bentley Geospatial Administrator it is often quite useful…

...in your schema, just replace the system.math.round() function references with the equivalent xfm.round() function as necessary. Regards, Jeff Bielefeld [Bentley]

Gabriel, Please try adding brackets around the feature class name and operations property as follows: COMPARE("[road_Collection]/[what_to_do]", "upgrade", "")

...using "Named Criteria" in the "Bentley Geospatial Administrator" is currently the only way to have the "Map Manager" layer classes not display the underlying criteria expression. Regards, Jeff Bielefeld [Bentley]

Krister, During the register feature process you may not be aware that you can select one or more feature class names or business property names and then right-click and choose to change the case as shown in the following: Does this capability…

Veeresh, First regarding the use of composite primary keys for annotation, you're correct that capability used to work. However when the ability to support arbitrary-depth features in Bentley Map was added for Oracle Spatial persistence, subfeatures…

Rob, You should be able to use the described RESET FEATURE technique with linear features (e.g. lines, linestrings, curvestrings etc...) as well, just as long as the line/linestring elements are created on the level which match that defined in…

Greetings, After reviewing your SQL script, it appears that you may have omitted the primary key definition for the annotation table which would have prevented the table being "discovered" during the "Register Features" process in the Bentley Geospatial…

The Bentley Geospatial Administrator (geospatialadmin.exe) should be used for all interactive geospatial schema editing. The following command line should automatically open the specified schema: geospatialadmin.exe -l=full_file_specification.xml…

Erik, In the Bentley Geospatial Administrator the purpose of the "Display Name" setting for both feature classes and their business properties is to provide support for XML compatible class and property names. As you know XFM feature class and property…

Tom, I've updated the archive to include a folder containing all the images which should be placed in an "image" folder immediately beneath the folder containing the generated HTML page. By default the HTML page is generated in your system temp folder…
