Locking a DGN file

$
0
0

I need to lock a dgn file so that no one can open the file to make changes to it without my knowledge.  I know you can password protect the file but i want to still be able to reference the file.  I tried password protecting the file but when i open a file that has the locked file reference into it, it now asks for the password which defeats the whole purpose of locking the file.  I still want to use the file as a reference but don't want anyone to make change to that file.

Is there a way to lock the file but still be able to use it as a reference file?  This is in SS10


Utility Properties

Hi,

I am creating a text favorite which will be used to annotate a Storm Pipe.  When creating the text favorite and I'm prompted to select the pipe properties to be included, there seems to be some issues.

Length (Construction) seems to be the pipe length in Plan view, which matches the DeltaX value when I check the properties for the pipe in the profile view, but I want it to label the "Actual" pipe length which I assume to be the length shown in the properties form the profile view.  However, this value doesn't show up in the properties for the actual pipe.  Instead, I'm given the options of Length (3D) & Length (Unified) which give a different value for pipe length than the value given in the Profile properties.

The same issue occurs regarding the Slope.  I want my label to display the correct slope of the pipe.  I am only able to choose Slope (Calculated) for my text favorite, but this does not match the actual slope of the pipe as seen in profile view.

Please see the image below where I highlighted all the different values. (Image on the left is the field editor where I can choose properties to add for the text favorite)(Image on the right shows the properties from profile view)

In summary, can anyone advise on which properties I should be choosing when creating a text favorite to be used to annotate the True Length & True Slope of a pipe.  The true length and true slope should have the same value (annotation) when annotated in plan & profile.  I am not sure why the properties are giving literally 4 different lengths and 2 different slopes to choose from.  I just want the True values (ie. how long of a pipe needs to be purchased, and what the slope is for final construction)

It should also be noted that when creating a text favorite, it does not allow you to choose the slope property from the profile view.  It seems like my only option is to choose the Slope (calculated) value, which is the wrong value.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I am making a corridor for a road with parking, sidewalk.

However, i get stuck in the position without parking lot, the curbs turn with 90 degree.

I tried making a Point control horizontal alignment, however, it goes wrong.

How can we keep it follow correctly at those positions?

I am not really proficient in ORD, so i welcome sharing from you all.

New to MIcrostation, need help developing/understanding LIB

This isn't related to OpenRoads. The survey firm I work for recently got Microstation PowerSurvey V8i (SelectSeries10), I am trying to understand how LIB files work with the software and how it integrates into the company's custom template that I am trying to develop (preset layers, lineweights, linetypes, etc.). I am also trying to understand how points (nodes in AutoCAD) are imported and how to create codes for survey figures and their properties. If their is any literature on LIBs and how their created I would love to see it. Thanks 

Terrain model edition issue

I processed a DTM in Openroads Designer Connect (ORD Connect 10.07),  from survey data (points & survey chains). My DTM has a feature definition (DTM_ex).

I turned ON (in the (Surface Properties) my DTM triangles to visualize them. Everything good at this point, 

After a first edition of my DTM (deleting bad triangles in the exterior), the DTM Triangles get all turned OFF. I have to go back to properties to turn them back ON, in order to continue my editions.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

How to label a vertical alignment

$
0
0

Good morning!

 I have come a long ways in completing my first Plan and Profile in ORD. Unfortunately, now I am stuck trying to figure out how to label my vertical alignment? I've read through the help section and searched online. I must be looking over it? All the questions I see answered are more advanced past the initial labeling.

Wanting to label my PVC's / PVI's / PVT's / Curve lengths / Low points / high points / K factor and slopes.

I figured it would have been in Drawing Production / Annotate element but I can't get that to do anything for my vertical.

The only video I found online skips right over where to hit the initial button (or goes way too fast for a beginner) and goes right into toggling what they want to label. I don't recognize that menu either? Pretty sure I haven't stumbled upon it yet.

I also did not see a toggle to identify my vertical scale. Only my horizontal "drawing scale". I imagine that needs set before I label the vertical. We tend to use 50'-H and 5'-V but on occasion I need something different like 40 and 4 and 50 and 2. All depending on the municipality requirements and sometimes how it fits on paper.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Jeremy

[ORD 2020 R2] Open Roads Locks Up If User Selects Network Workspace

$

We have a newer workspace on a network server (under "custom configuration") and an older version installed locally. I have a user that when he tries to select the one on the network, he gets the spinning circle icon and eventually is told ORD is not responding. If he selects the local workspace, it allows him to use the software but then he is not getting any enhancements that we have made since the original local workspace was created. According to the Civil File Manager, none of the DGNLIB's are "too new" for his version.

As a last resort, I am upgrading his PC to ORD 2020 R3, but if this does not fix it, does anyone know what else we can try? (We are only in a test mode with ORD, so we are not too concerned with Versions at this time.)

When I attempt to open a .dgn from Pw, I get a command prompt that says "MDL Loader: Could not load application componentview" along with several .NET Framework errors that say files are missing. If I open a .dgn on my desktop, Geopak functions properly. Has anyone seen this issue before?

Plan View Labeling in Open Roads

Hello,

I'm labeling plans in ORD FDOT Connect Edition.

I am using a text file do do all my labeling.

I rotate the text file based on my clip boundaries before I place labels.

For some reason, the labels do not follow the angle/current orientation of the text file.

Is there a way to fix or change this setting? I would like my labels to follow the current orientation of the text file/ clip boundary. 

Thanking you in advanced!


[ORD] Geometry Builder - Creating Linestring Elements (and Not as Complex Chains) and the Problem of Annotating Results in Those Instances

$
0
0

As part of our testing and evaluation of ORD, our Plat Preparation users are looking at all of the various geometry tools and the geometry builder. While testing its capabilities, I recently discovered it can store a Feature Definition with each figure. But If we write the file to the DGN, if there are no arcs, it creates linestrings. The linear annotation tools do not deal with linestrings well at all. To get actual lengths and bearings on each segment, I had to use the Table Editor after placement to complex the segments. Only then did the annotation appear on each segment.

For a group that is lamenting the loss of COGO and the ability to preserve all steps needed to locate and rebuild parcels according to deeds, this is an annoying extra step.

Similarly, the Geometry Builder Edit also simplifies the graphics which then requires the use of the Table Editor again.

And we also need a way to annotate some or all segments with labels and to place that linear info into a table using those numbers. At our DOT, we number all elements sequentially per parcel, without regard to is it a line or an arc. Basically, each deed call is numbered sequentially. We would need that as an option as opposed to line tables and curve tables as separate and numbered separately, which I know is the standard for other localities and agencies.

OpenSite Designer - cut/fill volumes for more pairs of surfaces

$

In InRoads XM, it was possible to select several pairs of original/design surfaces and to calculate triangle (cut/fill) volumes for all these pairs simultaneously. And all results could be exported to one file at once. Is there similar possibility in OpenSite Designer or is it necessary to calculate volumes separately for each pair of surfaces and to copy the result manually from active design file where it can be placed as a text element?
