Week 2 Challenge

1. What are workspaces and worksets? List Civil specific variables (min. 5). Where is the workspaces saved on computer (default location).

2. What are feature definitions? What is broader classification of feature definition types.

3. Create a dgn file with 2D imperial seed file and 3D imperial seed file. Save it in project data folder, creating new folder named DGN from SEED.

4. Set geographic coordinate system to TX-83, North Central zone, US survey foot. Turn on the background imagery. Save this file with save settings.

5. Attach the survey file from SURVEY folder to the newly created 2D dgn in above #3.

Q-1 : WORKSPACES :

The software is configured in a WorkSpace and a WorkSet. A WorkSpace is a collection of standard settings that control how the program works. The Department of Transportation (TDOT) has its own WorkSpace with specific TDOT CADD standards, including cells, color tables, dgnlibs, fonts, scales, seed files, sheet border, model template library, etc.
