URG : Problems crossing TRIFORMA to Bentley ARCHITECTURE

  • Hmmm...  Very difficult to say.   Can you compare the DEM settings between TF and BA just to be sure they're the same?  I'm not sure why they wouldn't be.  The other aspect could be some part of the dataset is not the same, either the Family/Part files or the DGNLibs.  But in that case I would think that the DV would give you the same results as the DEM, which it isn't.    Which leads back to DEM settings...



  • For the cells. In V8I+Architecture,yes it works with DV but not with the DEM. But the same file with the same cells works with the DEM in Triforma (v8 2004). So ???

  • Regarding your cells in DEM, do they come through in a DV?  Just wondering if it's DEM specific or something that applies to both processes.   My first thought would be there's a setting difference between BA and TF, perhaps a level difference or the Compound Plan Symbols toggle, but that's just a guess.

    As far as plotting goes, unfortunately my knowledge is very limited when it comes to things such as color tables. I know a little about some of the higher level options, but wouldn't have a clue when it comes to color differences between the model and the plot.



  • Sorry Steve but another question.

    you have resolved one of my problem. the biggest. bu ti have almost 2.

    One that i describe in my precedent message and the other is : how can i print the sheet (made with a DV with unification, parts...) to have the good i want ? i say that "rasterized" have to be click. but when i make an overview with my color table, i dont have the good color in my overview. Some are good and some are the same that the screen??

  • Hi Steve

    Thanks.

    Ok it's working. i don't understand why.

    But not with the "convert ref file" option. I have to click "merge display level only" to be ok.

    Before, when i try, in my home, with this option it doesn't work.

    But in my home, i have Bentley select1 and here, at my job, i have Select2!!! it"s the only reason i see.

    So it's great.With this method (to make independant file) and the DV, it's look like better than the DEM.

    I'm thinking about how working in my agency because we are going to migrate to V8i+BA and all people are not going to have Architecture. The most easy is with DEM (independant file can be read with V8I only) but...to long and not great.

    Another question for you. Some cells or part of cells are not calculate by the DEM in BA. they dont appears. But with the old Triforma, with the same cells, the same file, it's ok. i dont know why???

    Have you an idea.

    Thank you very much steve.

    Bye.
