Importing Bentley OpenBuildings models with textures

Question

Greetings, 
 I am trying to import a DGN model of a building using iTwin Synchronizer, but the uploaded model does not seem to have the same textures as viewed in Bentley OpenBuildings. It is as if the textures are not imported into iTwin Synchronizer. For the model we have only used the default textures provided in OpenBuildings. 
 Kind regards, Justas

Hi Justas Kardoka that seems like an issue ...Can you raise a SR with a link to the iModel. Especially if you are using standard textures, but if you are publishing from iTwin Synchroniser it should have access to them. You can also click on the Collaborate tab in OBD and there should be a Synchronize to iTwin What warnings are there when you Sync using iTwin Synchronizer ?

Which connector are you using for the sync? If you are using OpenBuildings then you will need to add a windows environment variable to the machine you are running the sync on. 
 For the OpenBuildings connector you need to add a variable named 
 ITSYN_EXTRA_BRIDGE_ARGS_OpenBuildingsDesigner 
 the value should point to your workspace location (maybe the default Building_Examples will work here but must be installed) 
 --DGN-Install="C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces" --DGN-Workspace="Building_Examples" 
 
 After adding the variable. Create a new iModel, open iTwin Synchronizer and sync your file into the new iModel.
