I was wondering if I can use configuration variables to setup my Geopak Survey default preferences (SDP) file. Specifically to define Project Directory, Job Directory, Global Working Directory, and Dataset Output Directory. I would like to set them to…
Hello Marc,
Preference Manager is a single location where you can change preferences without running the commands. The nice part is that all preferences are shown and whether the name has been defined for a particular command.
Preferences can be…
We'll be installing InRoads V8i (SS1) and AutoCAD 2010 next month, but will continue using InRoads XM with MicroStation XM for a few more months. How can we set the Save As options in V8i to always default to version 8.7-8.9 Compatible? I'm hoping there…
MicroStation V8i SS2 (08.11.07.443) and InRoads Suite V8i SS2 (08.11.07.494)
New to supporting InRoads product....
Installed new MS and IR products after un-installing previous versions of both and deleted all directories left-over.

We are using PowerCivil for North America (SS2) V08.11.07.564. The civil.xin file seems to load but there are no preferences, symbology, or styles available. We can't even create these attributes. Read-write is toggled. I have uninstalled/reinstalled…
With InRoads, we now have the ability (I assume you are using Ss2 InRoads in Indiana) to use 'Geometry > View Geometry > Options' to assist in getting LOTS of annotation FAST (one click).
Of course, you first need your XIN to have the preference…
I have Modeler preferences set up for Power Civil XM. When I load them into Power Civil v8i, the settings for my objects don't update. Is there an incompatibility issue? How do I get my preferences into v8i?
Any chance of incorporating an EnvisionCAD.com like "XIN Manager" into InRoads in the near future?
Globally editing symbology in a spreadsheet is simple enough since you can export to a CSV file.
But Styles are a pain to edit globally using an XML…
When I hover over a ditch, my 4:1 foreslope displays at 25%. So I attempted to adjust by right mouse clicking in the section window of roadway designer, bringing up the "display template" dialog and entered the following, trying to switch it to an alternate…
I recently received a new set of preferences (XIN file) that are more based on DOT standards and have set up some of the basic operations to work correctly as default without loading a particular preference set. The problem is that the in house set of…

We were recently upgraded to begin using Inroads SS2 from Inroads XM. I loaded our XIN file that was created in Inroads XM and discovered that there are some problems with the previsiously saved preferences in XM. After viewing the various new settings…
Robert,
Does the GPK variable you told me about override Modeler Preferences? If I set GPK_SET_LEVEL_BYLEVELS=1 and then load my Modeler preferences, all my object symbology does not update. I noticed this on my home machine as well so don't think…
Joe,
Go to the Tools> Options> Geometry tab and toggle on Read-Only for the Horizontal Alignment and Cogo Buffer, Apply, and save the preferred preference. The next time that you open the XIN and ALG files, the geometry should be read-only.

Neil - One of the reasons for the GSF format change in V8i was to enhance the capabilities for preferences. I have not tried the use of XM preference file as you suggest but you may need to run through the object settings in V8i and set them the way you…
