PB with extraction DEM

Hi

i have a pb when i extract. i'am going to migrate from V8 2004 + TRIFORMA to 8I + Arhitecture.

My pb is that the DEM don't calculate me some cells and i don't know why.

I attach a file with some cells and a drawing def. This cells are calculated in triforma with v8 2004 (the same file, the same def !!!).

So i try with the DV. it's work but make appears other pb. My dv are ok. No pb with the DV but i can't print them with a pen table. The color are not good.

Maybe it's impossible to print a dv with a pen tables??

So i try to save my dv in 2D (save as). all the cell works but i have some hidden line (only on hiddenline of wall that are holed or with hole) that have dissapeared!!! But they are on my dv.

i don't know how working?? If someone have an idea?

If you can tell me how you are working in 3d with BA to make your extraction.

Thanks and sorry for my poor english.

  • Is it just the cells that are missing?

    I had cells - some would show and  some would not

    It turned out to be some elements in the cell had to be rebuilt

    What drove ne craze as it would wok sometimes or only in some circumstances but was not ALWAYS broken

    Hard to chase down

  • Hi emilberger

    Today i have expose my pb to Bentley and i hope some answer.

    So the general pb is how to work in 3D in architecture. Make a draw in 3d, no pb (or not yet..lol no). But the pb is to make extraction.

    With the DEM, many cells are not calculate or a little (note that with triforma in 2004 there is no pb). I have discover that if i change a 3d cell with "change smartsolid display", it's better but some line always miss. I have make some cells with V8 but most of my library was find on internet, on friend, on supplier's cd. All have been import in .dgn. I haven't found difference on cell who work or not.

    With the DV. No pb to make a DV with architecture, with actived parts and family. The DV are ok (i see all wath i must see) but there is 2 pb. The first is that when i want to print them with a  pen table, it did'nt work. i don't have the good color. Because i want to print my DV with other color that i have on the screen. Is anyone have do this ? The second pb is to export my DV in 2d to send my sheet to customer or partner (that have autocad). I use "files/export" (if anyone know another way?". so i export a 2d model with DV in reference (and text and annotation...) and i activate in the options "merge visible edge in 3d" and here is the pb. When i activate the "rapid" method, i have all the DV in 2d (there is no line missing) but the definition is bad : circle look like octogon for example. When i activate the "exact" method, circle are circle. it's "exact". But i have some line that dissapeared. This lines corresponds to Triforma element that are hidden, unificated, and holed (the same element not holed-->ok, or not unificated-->ok,or not hidden-->ok). So i have 97% of my sheet ok, but i have some hidden lines who dissapeared (in the DV  this lines are ok).

    I already notice that when i activate the parts/family (in the construction tab), The draw in my view is affected. Circle look like octogon for exemple. and if i desactivated it, it's return ok.?? 

    Our formation on V8I are in 10 days and i have pb on things that worked with V8 2004 but not now. Grrr.

    So if anyone can tell me if he had meet the same pb with 3d extraction or how he worked ?

    Thanks
