MicroStation CONNECT Edition Update 15

Shortening the Learning Curve for AutoCAD Users
Option to work with a UI similar to AutoCAD
MicroStation emulates the AutoCAD interface, displaying tabs and tools similar to the layout of the AutoCAD ribbon. You can even set your preference so that the ESC key cancels the active command. We also call this the "dark theme."
Use DWG shortcuts as key-ins
You can now use 100+ AutoCAD keyboard shortcuts in MicroStation as key-ins.
DWG Configuration Wizard
The DWG WorkSet Wizard will help you seamlessly migrate your AutoCAD standards to a MicroStation WorkSpace/WorkSets.
RealDWG 2021 support
Support for RealDWG 2021
Productivity Enhancements
WMTS (Web Map Tile Service) support *
Use WMTS, a standard protocol for serving pre-rendered map tiles from the server or run-time computed geo-referenced map tiles over the internet.
iTwin Design Review support *
Simplify model sharing and web-based model review with the ability to access iTwin Design Review within MicroStation.
Summarize, Group and Aggregate information in Reports *
Summarize information in columns and display in reports with the ability to group rows and generate sums, counts, averages, minimums and maximums for columns.
New rendering with enhanced functionality and improved performance *
Use the built-in VUE render engine to render your models with even more realism in significantly less time. This new rendering process is multi-threaded, so you can continue to work while the rendering is in progress.
Define custom properties calculated from other property data
Employ powerful expression-based system to define complex custom properties calculated from other property data, like taking object geometry properties like its volume and a property attached to it that defines its density to calculate the object's mass.
Drive parametric variables of your model from Excel
Import any number of parametric variables from an Excel spreadsheet, avoiding to duplicate manual effort using the variables dialog.
Help, Notifications and Profile in ribbon
Access notifications, learning, support, help documentation, your profile, and account-specific information in the ribbon.
Use 'include these item types' filter in reports
Intuitively find and select the right item types and properties for a report more quickly.
Wildcards in display rules
Use wildcards in display rules by setting the string to (*/?) followed by the "like" comparison to filter out long lists and search the exact string.
V8i Task Theme **
Display the task theme interface familiar to the user interface of MicroStation V8i.
iTwin Synchronizer **
Use the iTwin Synchronizer to synchronize changes in a design file to an iModel in the iModelHub for cloud-based design collaboration.
Text Favorites Manager **
Associate Item Types in the field type while creating or managing a text favorite in the Text Favorite Manager dialog.
* public technology preview capabilities
** moved from public technology preview to general availability




The latest generation of MicroStation-based platform products are called the Connect Edition, taking over from the previous generation V8i. Bentley has dabbled with Microsoft naming conventions (95) to straight versioning over the years, this represents a break from all previous branding.
MicroStation's advanced parametric 3D modeling capabilities allow infrastructure professionals of any discipline to deliver data-driven, BIM-ready models. Your team can aggregate their work on MicroStation, including designs and models created with Bentley's discipline specific BIM applications. As a result, you can create comprehensive, multi-discipline BIM models, documentation, and other deliverables. Since your project team will work in a universal modeling application, they can communicate easily to share intelligent deliverables and maintain the full integrity of your data.
MicroStation and all Bentley BIM applications are built on the same comprehensive modeling platform. You therefore can easily progress your MicroStation work into discipline specific workflows with Bentley's design and analytical modeling BIM applications. With this flexibility, each member of your project team has exactly the right application for the work they need to do.
In this MicroStation training video we review how to use MicroStation CONNECT Edition. We open an existing project to show where to find tools and how to navigate in the project. We review how to switch between Cartesian and Polar coordinates and how to place points and lines in the model. With our lines in place, we use solids modeling to extrude our simple building shape, modify the solid and choose our display style.

The minimum recommended workstation profile for running MicroStation CONNECT Edition is:
Processor Intel or AMD processor 1.0 GHz or greater. MicroStation is not supported on a CPU that does not support SSE2.
Memory 4 GB minimum, 16 GB recommended. More memory almost always improves performance, particularly when working with larger models.
Hard Disk 25 GB minimum, 25-42 GB depending on additional installations such as Companion Features and Companion Products
Video See the graphics card manufacturer for latest information on DirectX drivers. 512 MB of video RAM or higher is recommended. If insufficient video RAM or no graphics card supported by DirectX can be found, MicroStation attempts to use software emulation. For optimal performance, graphics display color depth should be set to 24-bit or higher. When using a color depth setting of 16-bit, some inconsistencies will be noted.
Screen Resolution 1024 x 768 or higher
