Reference file problems are a thing of the past.

RefManager is the popular software tool which solves just about any reference file problem and keeps MicroStation users in control of their reference files.

RefManager includes popular features such as:

  • Modify attachments — RefManager updates and standardizes reference file attachments in drawings newly converted from V7 to V8. For example, RefManager's "Modify Reference File Attachments" command can activate "Live Nesting" in multiple V8 files in multiple directories. This is only one of more than 70 reference file settings MicroStation users can manipulate with RefManager.
  • Precisely search for attachments — RefManager offers more than 20 different search criteria so MicroStation users can precisely identify the exact reference file attachments to be processed. These search criteria, or "filters", can be used with any of the RefManager commands.
  • Automatically attach references — RefManager attaches a new reference file to dozens of design files at a time. The "Attach" command saves time when MicroStation users need to update project files or set up a new project.
  • Discover the exact status of attachments — RefManager generates reports about the reference file attachments in one or many files — or in an entire project. The level of detail in reports is user-definable — over 30 different categories of report detail (for example, file path, model name, logical name, description, master and reference file origins, clipping information, rotation, scale, etc.) can be selected.
  • Identify missing attachments — In the process of migrating projects to V8, changing project directory structures, etc. a few reference files are bound to go astray. RefManager identifies missing attachments before they interfere with production.
  • Which attachments are vital and which are obsolete? — Out of those hundreds of project files, which are in use and which are obsolete? RefManager's cross-reference report identifies those files which aren't used anywhere.
  • Supports SketchUp vector reference file attachments (V8 with the required 3D Warehouse SketchUp plug-in).
