    Imported STEP file not displaying color

       
      Applies To 
       
      Product(s): MicroStation
      Version(s): 08.11.07.443
      Environment:  N\A
      Area:  Interchange
      Subarea:  STEP
      Original Author: Nick Rosley, Bentley Technical Support Group
       

    Problem

    Importing STEP file in MicroStation V8i SS2 and the colors do not display
    in DGN file.

    Solution

    In most cases one whole body or part can only have one single color or material. This would also be the case in a MicroStation DGN as one smart solid can only have one assigned color.
