0:00  Intro
 3:00 Be Consistent
4:19 Civil DGNLIBs should be "self contained" (Levels, Element Types, Feature Defs, Feature Symbology)
5:19  Federate Logically
5:58  Name DGNLIBS for "targeted Loading" (improved performance)
7:14 Seed Files: All Projects should have a seed file with a Geographic Coordinate System
   Same & Different between seeds (product level seeds)
10:30  Installation and Setup
10:59

ConfigurationSetup.cfg --> _USTN_CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION  ----- One change for custom workspace

12:36 Distributed Software Installation: Software Layout (can include custom settings)
16:23 Single vs. Multiple Workspaces
16:45 There can be only one (production Workspace fro each organization)
17:30 Config Level Hierarchy

23:20 Worksets
24:20 Worksets can be stored independently from WorkSpace (but Parent-Child relationship still exists)
25:06 What are worksets?
27:06 Defining WorkSet Location    _USTN_WORKSETSROOT
28:18 Using Organization-Civil
29:08 Using %Inclde to load separate information for different divisions
  %if $(_TRIGGER) == "Roadway" %include    %endif
30:30  Role or Department Standards
33:04 %if (_USTN_PRODUCT_NAME) == "OpenBridge Modeler"
33:36 Single Organization-Civil Organization
35:52  Defining Triggers
37:48 ProjectWise (Managed Workspaces)
 
 
Tools for debugging:
