What's New in MicroStation V8 2004 Edition?

MicroStation V8 2004 Edition sets the direction for the continued evolution of Bentley's “V8 Generation” products. This topic highlights the 2004 Edition enhancements to MicroStation.

Version 5.5 of Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) is required for normal operation of MicroStation V8 . If you do not upgrade to v5.5 or later, the Word Processor Text Editor window may not function correctly. The editor's V8 enhancements definitely will not work with earlier IE versions.
