Family/Part Editor, storing column display settings


 Product(s):OpenBuildings Designer
 Version(s):CONNECT Edition
 Environment:N/A
 Area:Datasets
 Subarea:Family & Parts

The display of columns in the Family/Part Editor can be modified to show/hide desired attributes:

These changes are saved by default in TFDSExplorerSettings.rsc in the Setting folder of the active dataset, e.g. C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Datasets\Dataset_SE\Setting.

This file can be relocated to another location, perhaps .../Organization/Setting/ (that folder would need to be added) or to a WorkSet. The variable TFDATASET_EXPLORERSETTINGS can be used to redirect it.

The path and filename must be specified, e.g.:

TFDATASET_EXPLORERSETTINGS = $(BB_WORKSET_SETTINGS)FPEditorSettings.rsc

Which resolves to:

C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\Building_Examples\WorkSets\BuildingTemplate_SE\Standards\Setting\FPEditorSettings.rsc
