FAQ: How to access RM Bridge now that it's included in OpenBridge Designer?

Answer: Click on the OBD icon and access RM Bridge in the Analysis tab. (Check below for detailed instructions)

To access RM Bridge, users have to first open OpenBridge Designer.

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Access OBD

 2. Create a New File, and save the .obdx file with a name in the project folder location.

3. Add a Standalone/BIM Workflow group inside OBD (initially, we suggest Standalone for a disconnected project between Modeling and Analysis)

4. Select the Group, then click on the Analysis Tab and select/click on the RM Bridge icon/name to load the application.

Note: OBD is the acronym for OpenBridge Designer, while OBM stands for OpenBridge Modeler, which is completely different from the RM Bridge portion Modeler that was previously called GP - Geometrical Preprocessor. The other RM Bridge module is known as Analyzer.
