To Install Bentley Forms Designer

Follow these steps to install the Bentley Forms Designer.

Copy FormsDesigner.msi installation file to your web server.
Note: Review the prerequisites, prior to installation.
Run FormsDesigner.msi, noting the name of the website to which Bentley Forms Version 3 will be installed.

Note: Accept the default value "BentleyForms" whenever possible.
When the Bentley Forms Designer installation has completed, follow these steps to copy the ALIM custom forms controls:
1. Open CustomToolboxes.js in the [Deployment_directory]\common\CustomToolboxes folder.
2. Select and copy lines 7 to 224 in the JSON object with the Name property "eB".
3. In the Bentley Forms Designer installation folder, browse to locate and then edit CustomToolboxes.js using a text editor.
  Note: The default installation folder is c:\inetpub\wwwroot\BentleyForms\js.
4. Locate the eB JSON object and its list of custom tools.
5. Replace the eB JSON object with the contents copied in step 3 (b).
6. Save the file.
7. In IIS Manager, recycle the Bentley Forms Applications Pool.

Important: Manually merging file contents is strongly recommended, rather than simply copying over CustomToolboxes.js from the [Deployment_directory] into the Bentley Forms Designer installation folder. This is because Extended Controls section includes an RTF textbox, and the eB.Transportation section includes a Condition Data control. If those controls are not needed for your deployment, but ensure that the new CustomToolboxes.js matches the previous format. Theoretically the existing CustomToolboxes.js file might be safe to overwrite, but ensure that the new CustomToolboxes.js matches the previous format.
