[Map SS4] Corrupt DGN level table after SHP import

I have issue that importing SHP data in Map SS3, SS4 the resulted DGN file is not correct. Features are correctly mapped but the levels they are on are not marked as used. If executing DGN repair by Key-in:"mdl load verifydgn;verifydgn repair" then it shows long list of errors like "verifyElm_hdr error: no level entry element found for level 1483". Also Map sometimes crashes when trying to close this file. The levels are from dgnlib and are not in seed file I start with.

  • I've properly imported both .shp files into the a new created design file and into the provided design file as well. I've also ran and exported your .xml schema (atis-shp2xfm-new.xml) and did not have any problem to impor both shape files (points and polygone). At first sight, Bentley Map seems able to properly import the files. We need to search somewhere else.

  • I also have no problems to import shp files. Problem is that Bentley Map doesn't create levels for mapped features so the DGN file is not correct. Check if SHP layers are correctly mapped to XFM features as the polygons should be symbolized and each in its own level. Can you attach resulted file?
    As a workaround I am able to also import SHP correctly without corrupting DGN but only if seed file already contains all levels.

  • That is nice but not what is needed.

    Try to import using exported XFM Workspace(atis-shp2xfm-new.xml)  and map to XFM features.

  • I get now, thanks for the video.

    However, all this is expected. shp feature instances are imported on the newly created level based on the criteria defined in your schema.
