Hi all,I'm trying to import directly a 3D DGN model from microstation to synchro, but no geometry comes through. The model has been done in local coordinates. There is a Microstation DGN in the list of readable 3D, do I still need to use a plugin or am I missing something?
Hello Rafael -
Thanks for posting in Communities. The SYNCHRO Pro Plugin for MicroStation does have a version number and is released with SYNCHRO Pro, typically twice per year. You will require the same version for Plugin and SYNCHRO Pro.
Regarding the MicroStation version this plugin supports, it is the MicroStation CONNECT Edition.
There are many methods that we support the models created Bentley model authoring tools to be brought into SYNCHRO Pro 2019.2 (6.2.1.3):
- File> 3D in Pro, direct import of .dgn, i.dgn and .bim
- Publish i-model from AECOSim, open it in MicroStation then use the SYNCHRO Pro Plugin for MicroStation
- Import/Export from iModels, as our first step integration with iModel Hub, is also introduced as a Beta feature in this release
- Sometimes as a workaround, you can consider export dwg then import that into SYNCHRO Pro
Using one of the above methods should provide you an option to bring the models into Pro.
If you are still experiencing difficulties, I strongly recommend raising a support ticket by reaching out to synchrosupport@bentley.com. Our support team will be happy to look at your file.
