    Models are missing in a DGN file

      Product: MicroStation
      Version: V8i, CONNECT
      Environment: N\A
      Area: Models
      Subarea: N\A

    Problem

    There are no models listed in the dialog 'Models' but  there are supposed to be models in this dgn file. Is there any way how to recover or recreate the models?

    Solution

    You can try to use the model reindex keyboard input to restore the models of the DGN.

    Key-in: model reindex

    This will reindex the models and all the missing models should be listed afterwards.
