To Provide Custom Cells and Create Placeholder Fields
- Set the MS_DGNLIBLIST configuration variable to the location of your DGNLib or Cell file.
- Select the Place Text tool.
- Click the Insert Field icon and select the Place Holder Link Properties field type.
- If you want to create a place holder link field pointing to a property of a drawing boundary, select a DGN file that contains a drawing boundary.
- In the Link Target dialog, select a drawing boundary.
-
In the Fields Editor dialog, select a property.
Note that the placeholder field uses the selected drawing boundary only as a template to display properties. After it is placed, it does not point to that drawing boundary.
