    Jakub, Marc and yourself had great answers to the question. Kudos! I think it would be great if Bentley would put the BIM Execution Planning videos on You Tube. Not only would the ease of access be a great benefit for BIM users in general, but it would…

    Correct. I don't know that the keyins to do it through a batch process are available. You could keyin to load the mdl and open the dialog, but I don't know about loading a specific mapping table. It is much simpler to just reference all the files you…

    Creating auto-annotation for a selected component is possible using the "bbannotate byrightclick" key-in. (Don't know why it is named this way.) First select the component in the drawing and then use this key-in. (Doesn't seem to work with a selection…

    It is prudent to carefully, very carefully craft your reference file attachments so that nesting is controlled. If you've inherited files where folks haven't been careful then it is often worth the time to straighten the mess out before using the files…

    Great, Thomas when just occasionally someone is careful to use unambiguous, complete terminology. This forum would be a lot more useful if that was customary, instead of sloppy jargon and ambiguous shortcut stream-of-consciousness typing that's understandable…

    I would say that grouping elements is bad practice, simple as. Grouping should only ever be a temporary fix. If you are grouping items(such as room/apartment layouts) then these should really be done as references, which then allows you to assign logical…
