You like MicroStation V8i, but…

· Ever wanted to view the properties of a cell before placing it in your model?

· Ever thought that element properties are displayed the moment you select them in the view window, then why do I have to do extra clicks to view model properties from Models dialog or link properties from Project Explorer?

You’ll Love MicroStation CONNECT Edition because…

MicroStation CONNECT Edition comes with Unified Selection Support. What this means is that selection is synchronized across many non-modal dialogs such as Explorer, Properties, Cells, and Details. For example, if you select a link in the Explorer dialog Links tab, you will see the selected link’s properties in the Properties dialog. Similarly, if you select a Model in the Model’s dialog, the Explorer dialog’s File tab will select it automatically.

The following video demonstrates a few examples of unified selection support.
