Tiling of Bings Map Raster Attachment When Printing

When printing a set of sheets from within a dgn file I encountered a problem where the bings maps raster attachment "tiles" itself across the display area. The first sheet in a file always prints fine but then subsequent sheets display the tiling behaviour. The first image shows what the raster background should look like and the second shows the tiling behaviour. I figured a workaround for this that involves opening each sheet individually for print and first zooming extents then saving settings and then actually printing. This is a real pain though and I am curious to know if anyone knows why this happens in the first place and if there is a faster workaround/solution?

  • I don't experience this in my quick test:

    • attach bing map (raster attachment)
    • create named boundaries
    • create drawings (don't open model)
    • print organizer to print sheets to PDF

    I am using  2021 R1 (10.10.01.03)

    Is it your workflow?



  • This tiling behaviour only occurs when printing individually. If one uses the print organizer then this does not happen. I found the problem occurred most when the print dialogue window (shown below) was kept open between changing of sheets for printing. I am using the same version of OpenRail.

    The reason why I opted to print like this is because I had a different problem when trying to print using a .pset file and the print organizer. When using the print organizer I had certain lines within my titleblock (placed as a cell) that printed black rather than in colour as they were supposed to. The strange thing about this is that I had lines in the plan/profile view of the sheet that had the same line colour number but printed in colour correctly. The same line colour number in the titleblock, however, printed as black. When I printed individually then the titleblock line colours printed correctly (but then I get the tiling behaviour). I have logged a ticket with Bentley regarding the line colour behaviour in the titleblock.

  • ok

    so maybe a batch could help if it does work when you fit all and save settings on each sheet model.

    A script like the following one applied on all sheet models.

    view off all
    view on 1
    fit all 1
    filedesign
