Defpoints

Hi Neethling,

It's always best to follow Forum best practices and tell the forum which version are you using. The solution (if any) isn't always the same.

Sure? Without knowing anything more about your issue, defpoints are the points where the element of dimension is pointing at.

This element don't exist in native dimensions of Microstation.

So you should convert the dimension style that you copied / imported to a native DGN style. For that use dimension style remap - see here for help.

For that you can change the style of each dimension element one by one but normally it's best to use RMB (right mouse button) on top of the dimension style inside Dimension Style Dialog and click remap and choose the one that you desire and all the elements using the old style will change.

After that in principal you can delete the Defpoints level inside Level Manager which should lost the bold feature in is name since it's not in use anymore.

I see here that you posted the same question in another forum. Why are you asking the same question in a new forum? This isn't productive.

Please click Verified Answer on the posts that helped you so others in the community can find them easily.

Hope this helps and regards.
