When finished keying in your Plot Parameters for Construction Limits, press OK. After double checking all the fields in the "Limit of Construction" dialog press APPLY.
If everything was successful, you can open the Plan Dgn file that you selected and now see your construction limits, (and any text that may have been desired).
