Hi,
Have to agree with Phil. As an MX user and knowing that Bentley is in the process of merging MX, Inroads and Geopak I agree with having one forum. We should be sharing our knowledge of each product we are currently using to discuss with Bentley…
Hi Dana,
tough question to answer without more details.
1) What type of projects will you be using the software for? If your project work includes Highway designs, that eliminates PowerCivil (which is Bentley's Land Development product)…
For a variety of reasons, I am trying to get MicroStation, Geopak (both SS2 and SS3), and InRoads (SS2) installed on my machine. I had it all installed at one point, but I had a variety of issues that crept up. To try and get everything working correctly…
Hi Neil,
The config variable finds Site elements that do not have vertices (the situation encountered and discussed in this thread) and looks at an internal copy of the DTM data that is stored inside the GSF and adds the vertices back onto the…
Is there any way to import a .ALG file (created with InRoads SS2) into Geopak SS3? I see all sorts of data file types that can be loaded into the Survey Book, but oddly no .ALG file type. Is there some other way that I supposed to add the horizontal geometry…
Hi,
there's been another refresh recently posted for PCNA. 08.11.07.244
As I said, we did some more work on the conversion of all the "native" style files (PSS/XIN/SMD) to DA Styles...
Hopefully this will help.
My company is trying to develop a way to utilize the intelligent Civil 3D Pipe Networks, but we are required by most of our clients to display all of our data in a 3D model in Microstation. I am trying to create a workflow to convert Civil 3D 2012 Pipe…
Hi Chuck,
Data Aquisition, that was delivered as part of InRoads SS1, will certainly import the DEM data.
1) Open Data Aquisition
2) Focus on the DA data tree.
3) Right Click on the Surfaces branch.
4) Select Create…
If I recall correctly, all elements are created as breaklines and, if deemed necessary based on the shape of the elements you create you require a "boundary" feature, you would reassign the DTM feature type once the wizard is complete.
Robert and Dan - Thanks for your replies. I think what Robert hit on is what I am looking for, that the new platform is in the works. From both of your replies I have a clarifying question for both of you, but first let me explain the context of the question…
this is correct. if you experiment with the affixes on and off in combination with the mirror option, you will get the desired results for naming all points.
In general I create the Paving buildup portions as individual templates (or grouping…
Marc,
Components are more of a Transverse entity in profile they would look very odd. The best approach here is to define alternate surfaces in tempate points, then use the modeler to generate the surfaces along with the alternate surfaces. In…
For those of you getting started, I wanted to take a moment to point out we have delivered a sample workspace to help you get started. Select the user entitled "Examples". Then for the Project select Bentley-Civil-Imperial or Bentley-Civil-Metric. Finally…

hello,
we used the openroads survey to create a file from ascii data. the file looked good and was as we wanted. we added a google map to the file and it crashed. now when we open, there is nothing displayed. the project…
Hi Morten,
There are preference type settings inside MicroStation (Settings>Design File>Data Aquisition) though there isnt anything specific to set for the different data collector types.
Any chance you can send me the data files so we can…
What is the best way to convert alignments back and forth between Geopak and InRoads? I am working with alignments that include spirals and have not had success automating the process. The best way that I have found currently is to convert using graphics…
Hi Hamilton,
I've discrussed this enhancement with the development team. They tell me that there are a number of data collects that store this type of data and expect your request to be replicated amongst other users.
I've created a ticket…
Hi Neil,
It appears as though both the 10:1 and 4:1 slopes that appear in View 1 are both "stuck" at a previous l(or other) ocation (even though they show where they do...) The other locations for both of these is to the right of where they appear…
Neil,
the config variable finds Site elements that do not have vertices (the situation encountered and discussed in this thread) and looks at an internal copy of the DTM data that is stored inside the GSF and adds the vertices back onto the elements…
Mark,
Sounds like a good suggestion. Please file a change request through our standard channels and it will be reviewed by Product Management.
Thanks again for the suggestion.

I would concur with my Benley colleagues that the GEOPAK Site Modeler functionality is ideal for just that, Site Modeling . It contains associativity within "features" and autoclipping and automerging for the overall site dtm. it is similar in behavoir…
I'm trying to determine what the equivalent GeoPak tool/file is to InRoads DTM. I know a DTM is a digital terrain model, however, it looks like in InRoads it is more than just an xzy file, or break line file? (I'm not familiar with InRoads) Is it equivalent…
I have been receiving some questions from users about the template editor dialog disappearing and unable to get it back without having to restart MicroStation and InRoads or GEOPAK. We have tracked this down to the following Preference setting... WORKSPACE…
