About ProStructures configuration
• ProStructures configuration can be controlled by system variables
• Working with ProStructures Configuration is similar to the MicroStation configuration
• If config/pro_st3d.cfg exists then it is used for configuring ProStructures (Compatibility)
• Otherwise config/appl/product.cfg is used
