    Units Section

    Select the units that the software should use to match the drawing's units. The units available are:

    Region and M.U.T.C.D. Edition Section

    Region

    Select the active country's content if you have purchased additional country content.

    M.U.T.C.D. Edition

    Select the M.U.T.C.D. edition that the software should use to match the drawing. For the USA Region, for example:

    Only use indexed colors in the drawing (MicroStation only)

    The software fully supports the standard colors for signing specified by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). If your workspace has not been configured to define custom colors, you can have the software determine the best RGB color matches for the FHWA standard colors in the attached color table and use the indexed colors for the inserted content.

    To have the software use only indexed colors in the drawing, select the Only use indexed colors in the drawing check box.

    MicroStation Working Units

    Before using GuideSIGN Plus in MicroStation, the working units must be set so that the number of positional units per sub unit allows enough resolution to display the objects correctly. Examples of appropriate working unit settings for imperial and metric drawings are:

    Imperial Units Metric Units
    Master Units ft. m
    Sub Units in. mm
    Resolution 12000 1000000
