    Background

    Sometimes user required DWG isometric component with specific color and line style, line weight. So that it will match with their predefined plot style, and generate isometric with their own standard.

    Below steps help you to convert OpenPlant Isometrics Manager isometric DGN to DWG with as per required color.

    Steps to accomplish:

    Microstation having functionality to define layers, color, line style in csv file. And use this csv file for batch process.

    1. Generate isometric in dgn format and go to file>Save As
    2. Select Save As type Autodesk (R) DWG Files(*dwg).
    3. Click on option tab. Refer below image.


    4. Click on Remap tab. And click on create csv remapping file.


    5. Give the name to “xyz.csv” file and save it.
    6. Now select Brows for csv remapping file navigate path of csv file and select csv file for editing.


    7. Now select tab for Edit CSV Remapping file.


    8. Csv file open in excel format. Here we can map color, weight, line style, fonts, cell names
      Following screen shot micro station level map dwg output color.

      For more details please refer below link.

    9. Save the csv file and close it.
    10. Click on apply color mapping.


    11. Click on save.
    12. Review the result.
