    How the Tag placement & attribute changes can affect the naming convention of cells/blocks when saving to DWG

      Applies To 
      Product(s): MicroStation
      Version(s): V8
      Environment:  N/A
      Area:  DWG
      Subarea:  Save

    Problem

    How the Tag placement & attribute changes can affect the naming convention of cells/blocks when saving to DWG?.

    Product: MicroStation
    Version: V8
    Area: DWG-Save

    Solution

    When the option 'Create Single Block for Duplicate Cells' is toggled ON
    when Saving to DWG, if the placement of the tag varies on the same
    subsequent cell names, a Unique cell name will always be created even
    when this option is ON. This is also the case for Attribute changes to
    each cell.

    Suggestion:
    To ensure that a single Block name is created, attach the Tag in the
    same location for each cell.
