As the title says. Parametric cells do not export to dwg.
WTF bentley - it would have been helpful to include this in the help.
After spending an age learning these tools, then developing cell libraries and then placing the content, creating drawings etc. I now find out that parametric cells DO NOT export to dwg. No placeholders, no warning, just omitted content.
Is there a method to enable exporting of these elements? If so where?
very useful feature parametric cells, however, if they don't export, what is the point, this makes them unusable?????????????????????????
Is there any method to select all parametric cells in a model? ie either by key-in or SelectBy ??
Hi Duncan,
Could you please send us your files for testing? Use this sharefile link to upload them https://bentley.sharefile.com/r-rbe289681aea4529b

Maria,
I have uploaded the cell library and a sample dgn file containing some placed cells.
When saving to dwg, it produces 2 files. one named as per the dgn file, and another with the same name and the drawing model appended which contains the (successfully) exported geometry
neither contain the parametric cells.
Yeah, I got them. I will have a look at them and contact you again via SR.
Hi Maria, embarrassing that this was a known issue before I went ahead and made parametric cells, but did you manage to sort Duncan's issue out? I am now having the same and would really like a solution that doesn't rely on 'dropping the cell'.
Thanks
