Whether you are working with client standards or corporate standards all of these variables when defined will help you ENFORCE encourage the users to follow them. Change the MicroStation Manager workspace options Take a look at the configuration variable MSWORKSPACEOPTS. MS_PLOTDLG_DEF_PENTABLEĭefines the default pen table that is loaded to the print dialog.
#MICROSTATION GLOBAL WORKSPACE MANAGER DRIVER#
Name of printer driver configuration (.pltcfg) file that loads, rather than last one used. Information such as the Global Origin, Working Units, and colors are not stored in the native AutoCAD file so the transeed file works to fill in those blanks. The transeed file is used when an AutoCAD file is opened in MicroStation. When you start MicroStation using the DDOT Workspace, the MicroStation Manager dialog box will appear with various options in the Workspace section:. The Seed file is shown at the bottom of the New dialog. Youcan also manage directories,select the type of supported filetoopen,andspecifytheworkspace you wish to usewhen opening a file.-To create a new design file. Selects the default seed file for all new files that are created. MS_GUIDGNLIBLISTĪ list of DGN Libraries that are auto loaded each time that store tools, toolbox, task, menu, and icon customizations. MS_DGNLIBLISTĪ list of DGN Libraries that are auto loaded each time a file is opened in MicroStation. Standard unit definition file that can be used when upgrading V7 files to V8 DGN files. Standard scale definition file for models. You can set the size of the list box by dragging the horizontal/vertical edges, or the corners of the dialog box. The Raster Manager dialog list box displays a list of all attached image files. Standard color table if the design file has none. MicroStation's drawing and annotation tools still can be used in views that display raster images. List of cell library files to be searched for cells, may contain wildcards. You can learn more about Variables and Workspaces by attending one of our CAD Manager classes. The variables are defined within the workspace configuration files. By defining some key MicroStation variables, the end user will have the standards they need readily available.įor those unfamiliar with MicroStation variables, they are meant to be used as pointers to standard resource files and folders for your projects. However, they will not be, if the CAD Manager does not make this easy for the user.
