Do you have to have multiple sessions
of MicroStation open just to view multiple design
files?
Spending too much time looking
for the design files you want to load? Or on going
back and forth between reference files?
Do you have to kick other users
off in order to be able to get your work done?
Since its initial release in January 2006,
DgnQuickPick has been the only MicroStation add-on that
gives users the ability to select the MicroStation file
they want to open with one mouse click.
New release
The latest releases of DgnQuickPick - version
2.0 for MicroStation V7 and version 8.4 for MicroStation V8 -
have undergone a complete overhaul and now offer users the choice between
two different user interfaces. Users can still work with the
familiar tabbed list, but now they also have the option of
selecting files from a tree-style user interface.
 |
| Figure 2: The “DgnQuickPick Model Tree” (DgnQuickPick for V8/XM) allows users to select and open any reference file or model in the tree. |
New user interface
DgnQuickPick gives V7 and V8/XM users the
ability to view and open all the reference
files attached to any given design file, straight from a single, simple tree (See
Figures 1 and 2). What's more, the treestyle user interface allows DgnQuickPick
for V8/XM users to select models. The tree-style user interface employs a hierarchy
similar to Windows Explorer. Design files are first in the hierarchy, models
(V8/XM only) are on the second "level" of the hierarchy and reference files are
on the third "level". DgnQuickPick for V8/XM users can even utilize the tree to
view the contents of any
cell library by simply expanding it (clicking
on the + icon,
just like in Windows Explorer). This will display all the cells in the library.
The tree-style user interface displays icons, providing
users with more information about the files in their list. Read-only files
display with a lock icon. 3D design files (or models
in V8/XM) display with a white
cube icon. Missing reference file attachments are displayed with
a special
"missing reference" icon. DgnQuickPick for V8/XM uses a Bentley "B" icon
to indicate
V7 design files and the AutoCAD logo icon for DWG files. Unsupported file
types are displayed with an "unrecognized
file" icon. This includes files
not recognized
as MicroStation V7 or V8/XM design files, cell libraries or
DGN libraries. See Figure 2 for
an example of these icons.
Right-click menu options
Users can now also take advantage of right-click menu options for files or
models in their list. From the right-click menu, a user can open a file,
attach a file as a reference to the active file, detach a reference file or
execute predefined key-in commands.

What users say
"We finished transferring drawings from another facility to ours and this
involved a wide variety of updates to our documentation. DgnQuickPick helped
us avoid losing time while jumping from one design file to another. It
integrated into our workflow easily and helped us decrease the time spent
on moving from file to file by at least 40%!"
Benjamin Rosendo, Johnson Controls, Incorporated
"With DgnQuickPick I am able to have
multiple drawings open at the same time
and tab between them. If one of the drawings contained on the tab was referenced
to another drawing on the tab, the changes
are updated automatically which
eliminates
the need to reload the reference. [DgnQuickPick] has increased
my productivity. This program is a hit!"
