Sign Footing Macro

This VBA macro can be used to draft sign footing structures in MicroStation v8.

Open Level Manager.
Select Levels > Library > Attach...
When the level library dialog box opens, select BRC.CSV. For NHDOT users, level libraries are stored in M:\CADD\V8Workspace\Standards\dgnlib.
Select OK. The levels needed to run the program are now loaded.

For NHDOT users, select Sign Footing from the NHDOT menu.
Users outside the DOT will run the VBA macro modSignFoot.main in nhdot.mvba. For more details about VBA programs, see MicroStation and Visual Basic
A panel will be displayed to enter parameters defining the sign footing to be drawn.
If it has previously been run on this project, the last saved values will be displayed.
Note that there are four tabs:
1. Footing - general details of the footing
2. Bolts - bolt sizes and quantities
3. Reinforcing bars - bar size details
4. Pay Limit Details - information about ground slope
If the Restore button is disabled, then no saved values are available.
Use the Clear Form button to clear all values.
The Do It button will begin creating the drawing.
When the drawing is complete, use the Exit button to end the program. At this time you will be prompted to save the current settings.
Settings are stored in signfoot.ini in the directory defined by the MS_DEF configuration variable.
