Is it possible to define a line weight by colour? I think this can be done in AutoCAD but I have no idea how to set this up in Microstation.
We are using the Version SS3
Hi, you can use pen tables or the plotter driver configuration files for associating a plotting width to each of MicroStation's colour. You can refer to the section "Working with Complete Designs \Print Resymbolization and Pen Tables" of MicroStation's help to get started. HTH
There is also a neat other way, use the csv remapping feature to export a V8i dgn to another v8i dgn it creates a spreadsheet where you can import all the settings of the current file say colours and set the export to set weights against the colours ...
I have used this feature for levels and fonts before it has the options for colours and weights ( turn on optional columns) it should work with colours to weights too.
