Point placing Tools: Associativity

Points to Patterns Construct Points Between Data Points should keep a linear 'construction' profile with handles for later manipulation. The path profile should be hidden until the array is selected. When the two Data Points are placed using snaps...

True Associated Dimension would rotate/maintain it's orientation with Dimensioned Element points.

Using the Dimensioning tools set to "True", and having the Dimension "Associated" with an element or segment points of an element. The Dimension should have an option to adjust dimension, to element/points, so it would maintain it's orientation to...

Re-Attach Reference Files to keep Configuration Variable

Hi,We use references with configuration variables to define the path for every project we have. (Standard details that are used on each project.)In Microstation 7, when you double clicked a file (with the path defined by a configuration variable) ...

Dimension a line as you draw

It would be a real time saver if a user could create a custom line that would have the ability to have the dimensionof said line labeled as you actively draw the line.

[V8i] showing length of line while we place them in drawings

Hi,We are rebar detailers and we see a practical difficulty to measure the bar length every time to check (Checkers mainly) for drawings drawn by other detailers. Is there a way Microstation can automatically show the length of lines drawn using o...

Ref Attach Dialog: Option to match the incoming Ref's GCS to an ACS in the local file

Transfered from EAP Ideas list. Also discussed during the SS3 beta. Referencing by ACS matching would be very cool.Currently, I think you have to:1. In model to be referenced: Go to your 'Top' view, use Window Center and tentative to model 0,0,0. ...

Copy Parallel - Associative

Transfered from EAP Ideas list.it would be great if there was an 'associative' option to the Copy Parallel tool. This would make the copied element automatically have a parallel and distance constraint.... much quicker than applying the constraint...

Constraints: Link to elements in Cells

Transfered from EAP Ideas listDraw a rectangular Block_01. Make one edge parallel to Line_01.Modify the vertex of Line_01. The edge of Block_01 rotates to maintain parallel alignment with LIne_01.To make Block_01 maintain its square corners, I hav...

Constraints: Copy with Element

Transfered from EAP Ideas listWill there be an option to copy the constraints as well as the element? This would be expected behaviour if you were arraying or mirroring features on an MCAD or structural steel part.It would be pretty slow and tedio...

Constraints - Highlighting + Feedback

Further to a recent discussion on the way the Coincident constraint tool works, I've started this thread to aid better tracking.Good of visual feedback will be crucial to making the tools quicker and more intuitive to use. If the tool looks buggy ...
