Target Aliasing with corridors in references

I think Jeffrey may be referring to the Corridor Referencing tool under Corridors > Miscellaneous on the Ribbon. You can add Corridor "References" there that are not Reference File attachments. This tool has you select the design meshes of adjacent components from a MicroStation referenced corridor. From there, you can use target aliasing to define as Jeffrey mentioned in the next post.

Select the component that you are trying to target rather than the corridor. Add that component as a corridor reference then it will show up at the very bottom of the target aliasing list.

When a corridor is attached as a reference, you cannot select it and hence you cannot add it as a corridor reference. Any other suggestions?

In order to use something as a target alias, you need to add it as a corridor reference first.

Were you able to find a solution to this problem?

Thanks Adam.

I have my main corridor (corridor A) in a dgn file. (A.dgn)
I have a secondary corridor (Corridor B) in another dgn file. (B.dgn)

In the main file (A.dgn) I have referenced the file with the secondary corridor (B.dgn) and I want it to use the (corridor B) as target aliasing but it does not detect it

It's possible? I think that this is not a circular reference.

What is the best practice to achieve this?

Thank You

What do you mean by "references". Microstation Refferences or Corridor References in a meaning of a Civil Product?

I think corridors will not be present on Target Alliasing list if they are some kind dependent on your working corridor- circural dependencies.
