I am looking for some basic viedos tutorials and learning programs for Aecosim building designer V8i select series 5. I found tutorials for Aecosim but these are for only connection edition. Any one have any idea or can guide me?
Thanks in advanc…
You can try using the keyin CONVERT BREP to convert the element to a SmartSolid. I'm not sure whether that will work for all elements, but it should do the trick in most cases.
Exactly. Attach a part & family attribute to the applicable 2D symbol(s) within PCS. That way they'll inherit those attributes when placed in Architecture. Assuming the same families and parts are available, of course. :)
Hi Folks
Work with color in sheets (pic see attached)
Q: How I can work with color that the façade grid witch is on a separate level is visible?

This sounds like Change Request # 246555:
Would like a "Word Wrap" type feature for Space Labels to force a second line of text if the property's value exceeds the specified maximum line length.
?
This probably is something better suited to an more in-depth support review, but... typically that message means that there's something "out of sync" in the DataGroup System. IOW, the door was placed with one set of DG data, which by editing time has…
Hi Thomas,
Below is a solution from the online KnowledgeBase written shortly after V8i was release last year. This question was asked a few times, as you may have guessed. :)
Q: Can Plan Only mode be used in V8i?
How do I set…
Hi
I am currently using BA 08.11.07.80 and am looking to upgrade to the latest version v08.11.07.87. I have a query regarding my existing dataset. I have created new components that have been added as company parts. Is there a way that these can be…
Technically.... yes, I'm guessing that combination would install and load up just fine.
However, be aware that it's *not* a tested and certified combination, therefore we cannot officially support it. Since the SELECT Series 1 version is much…
Ian John:
Just installed latest versions of MS and BA - seems to have cured the problem
Good to hear!
For reference, the most likely cause for what you were experiencing was probably this - http://communities.bentley…
"This worked - didn't work - and now does work in the current version."
Correct. The PAZ Edit In Place function did not work correctly in BA 08.11.05.xx, but was resolved in 08.11.07.xx.
We are considering purchasing some new computers and I need to confirm if Bentley Architecture V8i Select Release 1 is compatible with Windows 7 64 bit?
Thanks

As I understand it, the archroles.cfg file simply provides "out of the box" values, since you can't have previously selected anything at that point. Once you have selected different parts, those MRU values should be the values retained by each tool.
Hi Boyd, if you paste "Forward and Reflected View Hatching" in the Search field of the building help, it should return the topic details. Your description is close, though it's more about mapping a part's hatch/pattern setttings for use in the Forward…
Ah... That makes sense. While IFC (as a format) is able to translate non-graphic attributes that describe what an object is - a door, window, wall, beam, etc - it does not provide the ability to translate or store *parametric* properties because every…
Hi Andreas, we've had a few reports of that issue in support, but could never reproduce it. So we're not really sure what causes it. Are you running Windows XP or Vista? 32bit or 64bit?
Edit: I'm hoping others that may have come across…
Hmmm.... I don't believe I've ever come across a configuration solely based on UCF files. So I'm not completely sure what would happen or is to be expected!
I'm not sure if this would help any under the current conditions, but, you could try using…
Hi all,
After installing V8i, stairs are not working right!
Tre stairs tool seems to make steps for the whole height difference without considering that the last step will be actually the landing floor. In this way at the end of the stair there…
Hi everybody,
after placing a door (or a window) in the 3D model, I get an elliptic annotation cell automatic generated for the door in the dynamic plan view.
How can I changed this setting? I saw that another annotation with width and height…
I think Jordan gave some good suggestions:
1. Create a truss in PC Studio
2. Draw a Truss with the Soild Modeling Tools and create a compound cell from it (Usually my choice)
3. Create a truss in Generative Components
4…
That's OK. But if you do get a chance please report that number back here.
Regarding the issue, it actually seems to be fairly specific: A mismatch between the section XML file name and its internal structural code results in all section names being…
If you're referring to saved BVs in the BVM, you'll need to open the Saved Views dialog and check ON the "Show" column for that BV. This should display the original cut plane rectangle (the picture frame) which can be selected to display the section cut…
rklaschka:
In lew of this I really like the idea that we could place Compound Cells as dg doors and windows with dg data attached. If we attached a bxc to a dg definition the parametric bits could just be disabled.
1) Create…
