MIME Type Properties Dialog

Used to enable or disable streaming for point cloud and/or raster reference files when they are copied out. Opens when you double-click one of the MIME types (pointcloud and raster) listed in the File Streaming datasource node.

SettingDescription
MIME Type

Displays the name of the selected MIME type — pointcloud and raster.

Action

Displays the Copy Out action.

Option

Sets whether you want to enable or disable streaming for the selected MIME type.

When Enable streaming is set and a point cloud and/or raster reference file is copied out, then only the portions of the file necessary to complete the view in MicroStation are downloaded.

When Disable streaming is set and a point cloud and/or raster reference file is copied out, then the entire file is downloaded.

Minimum size for a file to be streamed

When streaming is enabled, this field controls the minimum size that a file must be in order for it to be streamed. Point cloud and/or raster reference files at or above the minimum file size will be streamed when copied out, and files below the minimum file size will not be streamed when copied out (the entire file will be downloaded instead).

This field is disabled when Option is set to Disable streaming.
