Interactive Dynamic Views in V8i
With interactive dynamic views, MicroStation V8i leapfrogs competing software. Users can work in 2D or 3D views and see both update dynamically. With interactive dynamic views, users can:
- Save time coordinating plan sets
- Improve the quality of deliverables
- Simplify the 3D modeling experience
- Improve interactive visualization
Working in 3D is easier because users can:
- Slice and filter 3D models
- Remove clutter from the working view
- See only what’s needed in any view at any time
- Drag and drop plans, elevations and sections to create documentation
Also, interactive dynamic views automate 2D updates for full drawing package coordination. This means that teams can:
- Quickly improve the quality of integrated documentation packages
- Reduce the time spent creating 3D models
- Spend less time preparing and coordinating 2D documentation
- Update all linked annotation dynamically
From a User's Perspective
"While MicroStation V8i promises many great new features, we are most excited about dynamic views.
In addition to producing 2D documents that are live representations of our 3D building information models, the ability to interactively define sections through our BIM models while symbolizing the information uniquely in different areas with display styles will enable us to visualize our designs in ways that we haven’t been able to conceptualize before.
Kudos to Bentley for making 3D design more interactive and more informative."
