Hi,

TR 275649 and its duplicate TR 267639 have been fixed in Bentley Map SS2.

TR 275649 - [Feature Model] When merging a XFM based designfile into an empty designfile features and properties are stripped off.

TR 267639 - [Feature Model] Request for the "Reference Merge" command to copy feature properties to active design file

Correct!

BUT "fence file", "Fence Separete" the copy/move command in the Fence tool box does strip of Features and Properties,. Only "Fence Copy " where you have to give at start point and a copy to point seem to work.

We will be most disappointed if this error continues to exist in the upcoming version in Q3, infact we have set the use of XFM on-hold until the error is removed.

There is a workaround in that you can fence copy your features into the active DGN file from the reference file. Fence copy does copy the properties as expected.

Hope this helps.

It is a BUG. Hopefully it will be corrected in the upcoming Select upgrade in Q3

Trouble reports:

:TR#275630 - Browse from Map Manager reports "No Valid Features Found" after import of MapInfo linear and polygon features TAB files.

TR#275649 - When merging a XFM based designfile into an empty designfile features and properties are stripped off.
