You can reference a MicroStation .RSC file that contains linestyles as a style resource document from any template or document.

To use this functionality, you must install the Translators option.

  1. Click File > Open to open the document to which you want to add a style resource document.

  2. Click Format > Style.

  3. On the Style dialog box, click Resources.

  4. On the Style Resources dialog box, click Add.

  5. On the Add Style Resource dialog box, select the name of the .RSC file that you want to add to the template.

  6. Click OK on each dialog box.

  7. When you close the document, click OK when you are prompted to indicate if you want to save changes to document.

The styles in the style resource document are referenced from the template or document that you just saved. If you open a document that references a style resource document, the styles in the style resource document will be available on the Styles list of the current document ribbon. If you open a document that is based on a template with references to style resource documents, the styles will also be available in the same manner. You can then apply the styles in the style resource document to elements or annotations in the current document.

  • Use this procedure only for linestyle resources.

  • You must apply linestyles to each document individually, unless you apply a template.

  • Sometimes you can attach several style resource documents that contain styles with duplicate names. In these cases, the Style Resources list in the style resource document has priority. In that list, the style listed first appears on the ribbon of the active document.

  • If you want to add MicroStation fonts to a document, click Options on the Tools menu. Then, on the File Locations tab, you can set the paths to the fonts with the Fonts 1, 2, and 3 options.
