SNUTTAR
- THE LIST
|
If you have any tips, send an
e-mail to Thomas
Holm. In Sweden just for
members of MAF - the Swedish Microstation user
group.
Your tip should preferably contain the
name of the utility, what platforms it runs on, a short
description, price category and an address (URL or
e-mail). If possible, a short comment on usefulness or
the like. We're trying to collect utilities that are hard
to find elsewhere, so please avoid common Vault or Select
utilities, unless you can for example direct us to a
compilation for a platform that is not supported in
Bentley's standard libraries.
Below, running within Microstation 95
is expected if nothing else is stated. Please note that
several of the functions offered are available in
enhanced versions within Microstation SE. Underlined
phrases are links to sites where the utilities can be
found. Clicking on some links will start an immediate
download from MAF's file archive.
