Remapping from DGNLIB

hello

We have recently renamed all our Level structures and updated our DGNLIBs accordingly.

In the DGNLIB a level that was called say A_AMEN_CLNR is now called ARC_AMEN_CLNR. In our DGN base files pointing to this DGNLIB the level name is A_AMEN_CLNR and when we do an update DGNLIB levels it just bring in all the levels with a the new name. So now we have A_AMEN_CLNR (as a used level) and ARC_AMEN_CLNR as a new level...

Why can in not see that the level has simply been renamed? I see there are a lot of very old posts about remapping levels using a CSV file but its so old and convoluted does it still actually work?

Surely in 2020 we have a better method of remapping than this? Any ideas would be greatly received. I have too many files to try and remap manually.

cheers Kim

  • Hi,

    As long as you knew your old level names create that CSV you're talking about and use the remapping tools  form the save/as process, it is working.
