Using Customized Seed File for Isometric Generation

Follow these steps to use the customized seed file to generate Isometrics other than the default file :

  1. Place your customized seed file at the Workset location. We will use the default Metric WorkSet located in the following path for this example. Also "Check" style is selected here

    C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlant CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\OpenPlantExample\WorkSets\Metric\Standards\OpenPlant\Isometrics\styles\Check\config

  2. Open the IsoProj.cfg file from the following Workset path.

    C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlant CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\OpenPlantExample\WorkSets\Metric\Standards\OpenPlant\Isometrics

  3. Edit the Seedfile variable for the selected style . For example "Check" style is selected in Step1 . Enter the same seed file name which you have placed at Workset style location in Step 1.
    # Seedfile
    %if $(STYLE) == "Check"
    IE_SEEDFILE = $(IE_CONF)TestCheck-isoseed.dgn
    %else
      IE_SEEDFILE = $(IE_CONF)isoseed.dgn
    %endif
  4. Save the changes and close the window.
  5. Launch OpenPlant Isometrics Manager and load the desired isosheet.
  6. Generate an Isometric.
    Generated Isometric uses customized seed file for the selected style instead of the default.
