    MicroStation in 3d

    Date: Feb 03 2021

    Summary: I am not proficient yet, but my project are much more complete and professional, I am very please to continue to work with MicroStation in 3D
    For me was just to learn to 3d tools and start to use the program.

    Positive: The program is the same platform that was created around 35 years ago,
    very intuitive, using references and active files, therefore very powerful against competitors.
    I start using Autocad 30 yeas ago, when i switched to Microstation there is a point of no return because the capabilities that it has.
    In 3D open Buildings is the same, if you want to work just in the structure you do I do not need to open the rest of the program!, but you can see it in the references. It is like using tracing paper all the time!
    The program has the 3D, but if you want to switch in the same file just drawing, you can do it, with the most powerful drafting program ever.
    Likewise with modeling, (I do not use the modeling yet so i can not speak about it.
    The support from Bentley is very nice , friendly and expeditious, without them I could not use this program at all.

    Negative: I think is more difficult to learn, but when you do it , it is faster.
    My brother that is also an architect spend 4 minutes to open a file in revit,
    i spend from 1 to 2 seconds! (other beauty of the references)
