    Level purge keyin

    AskInga logo

    Original Tip Date: January 2004

    Updated:  October 2010

    Starting with MicroStation V8 2004 Edition, you'll find a level purge keyin that deletes a level containing elements. When executed - all elements, in all models, will be moved to the default level unless otherwise specified via the keyin.

    Syntax:
    LEVEL PURGE [dest:destination_level] [source_level]

    For example:
    level purge dest:alignment guardrail will move all elements, in all models and on the level called guardrail to the level called alignment.  Then, it will delete the level called guardrail from the file.

     

    For more information on using this keyin, refer to MicroStation's Help > Level Keyin Format.
