These are two new Capabilities, one for DWG WorkMode, One for DGN WorkMode, and both can be applied to ALL WorkModes.

Capability is to upgrade the legacy file to the current build automatically when Saving or Saving Settings. The WorkMode can also come with a pop-up warning that can be suppressed with a third Capability, something like 'AutoUpgrade'.

So, for both the new Capabilities, if they are not defined, or disabled then there is no automatic upgrade of CAD files.

If enabled then when the user either Saves Settings, or Saves the file, the file format is upgraded to the current build using the upgrade settings/conditions the user has in place [or the defaults if nothing is set].

So, I have a v8i CAD file and I Save Settings, the file is automatically upgraded to v10 Connect.

But with DWG it is different. When I assign one or both of these DWG variables: MS_REALDWG_VERSION, or MS_DWG_VERSION to a specific version, then this Capability looks at that and then saves the DWG to that build.

Editing a DXF will upgrade it to the corresponding DWG version.

If I am revising lots of CAD files and I would rather just edit and upgrade + save transparently I think this is a clean solution.

So probably looking at 2 Capabilities + an autosave verification flag:

+Auto_Upgrade_DWG [MS_REALDWG_VERSION or MS_DWG_VERSION]

+Auto_Upgrade_DGN [will upgrade to MSCE if enabled in Capability DGN or ALL]

+Auto_Upgrade_Notification
