Civil models to Bentley Navigator - Civil Solids to Bentley Solids

I am trying to figure out how to convert my corridor in Open Roads to Bentley solids so I can split them up into usable components before bringing them into Bentley Navigator. Once in Navigator I need to do a schedule animation for construction staging. Is there a way to do this? I can use the split solids tool on the corridor but it does not retain both sides (yes I have split solids checked).

Is there some other way to split these large corridors up in Navigator or Microstation? If someone needs to show construction staging or really any sub-component of on of these linear corridors we we need a way to break them up after design. Please tell me there is a way to do this and I am just missing the obvious solution.

Cheers,

Terry

  • Terry,

    Can ou please verify my workflow. It will not work for me.

    I have an empty 3D dgn file with corridor Default-3D model referenced (locat, snap and view option are toggled on fo reference file). I draw some simple microstation shapes. elevation is irrelevant, jus planar shapes. shapes are selected and I run macro. Shapes are processing but nothing is coppied from referenced file into active one.

    I discovered that some meshes are copied only when fall as a whole into the shape.

    I'd appreciate any help on that.

    thanks.
