How do you drape a raster on a mesh in Connect. Dcdrape disappeared..

I can't find the old dcdrape.pal in Connect. But drape option is still present in the raster manager. So now how do we drape a raster image on a 3D mesh ?

  • Why don't you tell us this will be removed from Powerplatform

    I'm going to tell you no such thing, since I don't represent or work for Bentley Systems.

    I am speaking of draping an attached raster reference onto a terrain mesh. There is a dedicated option for this in the raster manager

    MicroStation Help tells us: Draping — Indicates if Draping is enabled. When dcdrape.pal is added to a material table (.mat) which is attached to a DGN file, the draping is preserved and can be viewed directly in the application and rendered by the rendering engine when this field is toggled ON.

    So why is dcdrape banished to a DGNLib in the Legacy_Materials folder, mentioned by ?  Or, is it available in another delivered DGNLib, and the help needs to be just a little more helpful?

    DCDRAPE palette is available in the old material library

    Since that file is mentioned in the current MicroStation CONNECT help, why is it located in a folder that, as  notes, this feature is so un-easy to access.
