&lt;p&gt;I am understanding MicroStation selection behavior for Graphic Group (GG), as there are some legacy models contains such attributes. When reading&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum/219449/what-is-actually-a-graphic-group"&gt;What is actually a &amp;quot;Graphic Group&amp;quot;? - MicroStation Forum - MicroStation - Bentley Communities&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;I think the behavior is GG should be selected and highlighted as a single element, however when I create a GG (the GG lock is ON) it still select and highlight each component separately. Any idea of the selection behavior?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/273/GG.dgn"&gt;communities.bentley.com/.../GG.dgn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Solid Stair in OpenBuildings Showing as Wireframe in MicroStation</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/building/building_analysis___design/f/aecosim-speedikon-forum/222899/solid-stair-in-openbuildings-showing-as-wireframe-in-microstation</link><pubDate>Thu, 02 Dec 2021 02:21:03 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:6755a068-d9fb-4994-b46c-3f553d439c96</guid><dc:creator>danny zhu</dc:creator><description>&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;i install open building design software and create a stair via the command as below image, you can see it shows as a solid even i change view to smooth, i save it as attachment stair.dgn&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/4174.png" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;select it, right mouse click menu and click Building element info to check its information as below image&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/2746.png" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;click button More Info to check the element information, you can see there is a &amp;quot;smart geometry&amp;quot; under cell TFSMTH and many line&amp;amp;arcs under cell TFVISBL&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;a id="2804080_thumb" title="3.png" href="https://jira.autodesk.com/secure/attachment/2804080/2804080_3.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;a class="" id="2804078_thumb" title="1.png" href="https://jira.autodesk.com/secure/attachment/2804078/2804078_1.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/5460.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;open this dgn model in microstation connection, you can see the stair is shown as line as below image, but you can see the smart geometry under cell TFSMTH is lost in microstation.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/image_2D00_2021_2D00_11_2D00_25_2D00_16_2D00_23_2D00_59_2D00_253.png" /&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;So the question is:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;Is it possible to show same solid in MicroStation as in OpenBuildings?&amp;nbsp; My guess is the &amp;quot;lost&amp;quot; smart solid is kind of only vertical product can understand geometry, but need experts&amp;#39; confirmation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="image-wrap"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>MicroStation export OBJ vertex offset?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum/201853/microstation-export-obj-vertex-offset</link><pubDate>Mon, 17 Aug 2020 04:02:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:29d4f6e6-01d2-49bb-a0ef-312e85d97680</guid><dc:creator>danny zhu</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Experts,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a DGN model which has large vertex coordinates (global origin is 0,0,0)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/273/large_2D00_coordinates.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;MicroStation exported OBJ file vertex:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;v 25.547030 448.286191 26.779118&lt;br /&gt;v 25.547030 448.286191 26.989118&lt;br /&gt;v 25.578582 448.694958 26.781168&lt;br /&gt;v 25.578582 448.694958 26.991168&lt;br /&gt;v 25.643519 449.099765 26.783219&lt;br /&gt;v 25.643519 449.099765 26.993219&lt;br /&gt;v 25.767201 449.584009 26.785718&lt;br /&gt;v 25.767201 449.584009 26.995718&lt;br /&gt;v 26.046705 448.268181 26.949118&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does anyone know why the exported OBJ file vertex get much smaller comparing with source DGN model? and Why this happens?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Let me Help You</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/achievements/687f4b6d-e18a-4e55-836c-49926ca2c9d9</link><pubDate>Fri, 09 Feb 2018 04:41:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:52461d80-9057-4288-9f3d-36eda447bb69</guid><dc:creator /><description>Answer a question that is verified as helpful or correct.</description></item><item><title>Ask A Question II</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/achievements/cd3cd235-25c1-476e-bb88-33a5705ca45a</link><pubDate>Fri, 26 Jan 2018 01:45:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:73880dc8-9d33-4d74-8f65-9ff868352159</guid><dc:creator /><description>Ask 10 questions in a forum.</description></item><item><title>Complex Shapes and their uses</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum/141944/complex-shapes-and-their-uses</link><pubDate>Thu, 12 Oct 2017 13:45:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:469560e5-ea3b-4774-9360-4bededdf13bd</guid><dc:creator>Mac Baker</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I use MS V8i and wanted to know a bit more about complex shapes.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m drawing simple one-line electrical schematics and was wondering how I might employ the use of shapes.&amp;nbsp; Are shapes most always closed? can they intersect themselves and one another etc.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We found a specific element&amp;#39;s Rotation-X value inconsistent on different machines(we are using same version Connect Edition and same series machines), do you know it&amp;#39;s caused by what reason?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have an ABD model which contains some properties like below but I can&amp;#39;t read it out with Microstation API, here is my original post about this issue&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/products/programming/microstation_programming/f/microstation-programming---forum/138604/connect-c-how-to-read-all-linkages-and-xattributes-contents"&gt;https://communities.bentley.com/products/programming/microstation_programming/f/microstation-programming---forum/138604/connect-c-how-to-read-all-linkages-and-xattributes-contents&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I want to know if any suggestions to let me query out these &amp;quot;Lost&amp;quot; properties with Microstation API? or I need use the ABD API instead ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;
