Hello,
we changed from Bentley Map SS2 to SS3 and now we've got problems in calculating the area of collection-polygons. Previously we used the Initial values in Bentley Geospatial Connector Administrator you may see here:
Now the Geometry_Area Attribute (and length Attribute for lines) seem to be removed and I just can set it up like in the following screenshot (Connector Admin 08.11.11.28):
That might be fine for usual polygon but not for disjoint polygon collections. If you have two polygons representing one Feature of a collection, only the area of one of these polygons will be calculated.
Does anyone know a way to get the area of the whole collection (included disjoint elements or holes)? And what happened to the Bentley Map attributes Geometry_Area or Geometry_Length which were also displayed in the DataBrowser (greyed out)?
Thank you in advance,
Maik
Maik Schulze Are the Database_* properties part of our database tables, is it necessary to create these?
No. These are automatically created and the values from Spatial database connection. Their values are from spatial properties stored/calculated in database. Otherwise, it will display XFM geometric properties; their values is calculated by Bentley Map.
This issue could be related to Polygon Collection. This features have change format between Ss2 and ss3.
Also, I see you are using ProjectWise Connectors for Oracle. It could be related to this application as well.I do not have this setup to be able to reproduce
If not more solution are bring by other post, I will suggest to filed a Service Request. Especially if you have a workflow have been broken by updating application version.
Sorry for the inconvenient.
