This course is for the experienced CAD user who wants to transition existing CAD knowledge to MicroStation skills. To ease the transition to MicroStation, parallel references are continually given, showing how MicroStation handles operations familiar to the CAD user. Subjects covered range from the initial setup of a new DGN file to incorporating existing data from non MicroStation CAD products.
