ECW Raster Images Display Red

Hi there,

Normally when my raster files displayed red it was due to the file path that was not accessible. Now when I try to attach ECW files it instantly displays these files in red. The file path to the ECW were long so I saved them onto my desktop, this did not resolve my problem. Its only these specific ECW that are giving me problems. I have older ECW files in the same project that are working fine.

Can some please assist?

  • Megan,

    Can you tell me the text displayed in raster Manager's "Status" column.

    Also, do you know what version of MicroStation/Bentley product these ECW rasters were attached in.

    And, finally, what version of MicroStation/Bentley product you are currently using to open the DGN that references the ECW raster attachments.

    It could be that the ECW files that are attached are not supported by the product you are opening them with. For example, the EAP versions of MicroStation CONNECT can attach ECW V1, V2 and V3. But, MicroStation V8i versions can only read ECW V1 and V2.

     This is a test

  • Hi Pascal,
    I managed to get the ECW attached after restarting my computer. I cant remember what the status Column displayed. Should this happen again i will take note of the status column.
    The ECW were sent to us as individual ECW files. They were not attached in any CAD program.
    We are currently operatin Bentley PowerCivil for South Africa SS3 (version 08.11.09.722)

    Should this occur in future, I'll send you the message if this is ok?
    Regards
