You can now choose between rounded and original (sharp corner) offsets while offsetting solid edges using the Offset Solid Edges tool.

Clash Detection Enhancement

Define Jobs on Levels in Nested References
You can now view levels in nested references in Clash Detection dialog > Criteria tab > Levels drop-down. You can also define jobs in levels of nested references.

Productivity Enhancements

Hide Thumbnail Preview for Files on the Work Page
You can now disable thumbnail preview for the list of files displayed on the Work Page for faster navigation to the backstage. You can do so, by turning on the Hide Thumbnail Preview setting in the Preferences Dialog, Look and Feel category. (Settings > User > Preferences > Preferences Dialog > Look and Feel category) The default setting is Off.

Access to Help in the Top-Right section of the Ribbon
You can now access Help from the help icon in the top right corner of the Ribbon, next to the CONNECTION Client sign-in icon.

Fix Direction of Hatch
You can now fix the hatch pattern orientation of the reference to a view by setting the value for MS_PATTERNORIENTATION_ROTATEWITHVIEW to 0.

Features Moved from Technology Preview to Commercial Release

The following features that were in Technology Preview mode in previous updates, have been commercially released in this update:

- Ability to Create and Edit a User Coordinate System
- Clash Detection
- Components Center
- Expressions

New Technology Preview Features

The following items are included in this update as a Technology Preview.

iTwin Synchronizer
You can now use the iTwin Synchronizer to synchronize changes in a design file to an iModel in the iModelHub. This iModel can be accessed and reviewed by your team members from anywhere. The iTwin Synchronizer is a cloud-based design collaboration tool.

Add or Remove an Element to Named Presentation(s) in the Properties Dialog
You can now control the inclusion of an element in Named Presentations from the properties dialog. You can set the value to True or False in the Named Presentation section of the properties dialog to add or remove a selected element from named presentation.

Create Text Favorites with Item Type Properties
You can now associate Item Types in the field type while creating or managing a text favorite in the Text Favorite Manager dialog.

V8i Task Theme in the Quick Access Toolbar
You can now access the V8i Task theme and its various styles from the V8i button next to the Workflow drop down menu in the Quick Access Toolbar. It is no longer constrained to the Task Navigation workflow.

MicroStation CONNECT Edition Update 14

The latest generation of MicroStation-based platform products are called the Connect Edition, taking over from the previous generation V8i. Bentley has dabbled with Microsoft naming conventions (95) to straight versioning over the years, this represents a break from all previous branding.

MicroStation’s advanced parametric 3D modeling capabilities allow infrastructure professionals of any discipline to deliver data-driven, BIM-ready models. Your team can aggregate their work on MicroStation, including designs and models created with Bentley’s discipline specific BIM applications. As a result, you can create comprehensive, multi-discipline BIM models, documentation, and other deliverables. Since your project team will work in a universal modeling application, they can communicate easily to share intelligent deliverables and maintain the full integrity of your data.

MicroStation and all Bentley BIM applications are built on the same comprehensive modeling platform. You therefore can easily progress your MicroStation work into discipline specific workflows with Bentley’s design and analytical modeling BIM applications. With this flexibility, each member of your project team has exactly the right application for the work they need to do.

In this MicroStation training video we review how to use MicroStation CONNECT Edition. We open an existing project to show where to find tools and how to navigate in the project. We review how to switch between Cartesian and Polar coordinates and how to place points and lines in the model. With our lines in place, we use solids modeling to extrude our simple building shape, modify the solid and choose our display style.


Bentley Systems, Incorporated. is the global leader dedicated to providing architects, engineers, constructors, and owner-operators with comprehensive architecture and engineering software solutions for sustaining infrastructure. Founded in 1984, Bentley has nearly 3,000 colleagues in more than 45 countries, $500 million in annual revenues, and, since 2001, has invested more than $1 billion in research, development, and acquisitions.
