Hi,
I was wondering if anyone would know how I could fix a simple level issue that I am having? My issue is that, on a new level I had created, called "Practice Basemap", I had added in some designs such as hatching, notes, etc. But now, whenever I try and move one of those drawings or edit them in any way, I can not since it isn't the current active level. Yet, anytime I try to change that on the Level Manager, the option to make the practice level active is greyed out. I'm not sure what I can do to change that, or any tips that you may have.
Thank you!
Check your Locks at the lower right of your MicroStation screen, and see if "Levels" is turned on. The level lock only allows you to manipulate elements on the active level. To work with elements on any level, turn the Level Lock off.
The other part of this question - is this all in one drawing? Or are we dealing with reference files? Reference files are an entirely different subject.

The Level Lock is selected off, and that didn't change anything. And yes, it should all be in one drawing, and it was just a newly created level that now I can not make active again.
Can you tell u what version of Microstation you are using?
Microstation CONNECT 10.17.00.209
ORD CONNECT 2021 R1 10.10.1.3
Microstation v8i SS 10 08.11.09.919
Power InRoads v8i 08.11.09.615
ProjectWise 10.0.3.453
I am currently using Microstation CONNECT Edition
Would you be able to send us a screen shot of your level manager?What happens if you use the Match Element tool on those elements?
In this screenshot, this is the current level I want to make active. And I apologize, but I have just now figured out that this is in fact a reference, so I do not know what the next steps would need to be. Sorry for not knowing that until now, and please let me know if there is any further information I can provide!
Highlight the level in Level Manager. If you right-click, you should get an option for "Copy".Then navigate to the list of levels in your active drawing. Right-click in the list and choose "Paste". You may need to scroll through your list to find the new level, but when you find it, you should be able to activate it.
If that doesn't work, you can always copy any element from that level into your drawing, then Match the level from that.
