    - Export to Esri Shapefile format

    To export a single feature to an Esri Shapefile:

    • From an open design file, choose the Map Imports | Exports button from the Primary group on the Ribbon 
    • Select the Exports tab
    • Right-click on the Exports node. Select New Export
    • Right-click the export node and select the Add Shapefile... option. Navigate to an output folder and enter a file name
    • Expand the Attached node and ensure your feature is selected

    • To specify which properties to export, right-click the feature and select Show Properties > Ungrouped.

    • Refine your export by defining the Spatial Criteria, Feature Parameters and Export Parameters:

    • When done, right click the export node and choose Export.

    - To export multiple features at one time use the Add Shapefile Directory... option

    NOTE:
    Export to Shapefile requires a coordinate system from the MicroStation Coordinate System Library.  If your DGN File contains a Custom Coordinate System, first change to a coordinate system from the library then use the Export to Shapefile Command.
