In SS4 I could Save As using the option Convert XFM 09 -> 07. After that it was possible to clip the information using fence clip.
In SS10 this does not work (for me).
I've attached two files, one having 09 linkages and one with 07 links. Neither is possible to clip.
Also, if I save the 09 file using Remove XFM Bentley Map specific data some shape turns into Polygon Collection that cannot be clipped either. Trying to drop these elements (Application turned on) will crash MicroStation.
I'm using BM for MicroStation.

Krister, I used the Drop | Clip option on another file last week with good results, so tried the same procedure on your files (thank you for uploading) and was blocked by the logic that Martin mentions. When I used his suggested Export process, I was able to clip the (Bas_Poly) elements in your file. I will continue to work on it to identify the reasons for that behavior.
Earlier work - Dropped, Clipped Current file - Exported | Clipped
The software crash should not happen, so I please create a new Service Request or send me the Exception.log file in a private message we can take a look.
Thanks for looking into this!
I will get a log the next time I visit the customer but it might be a while.
