Compare DGNlibs

Hi there,

I am using ORD CE 2021 Release 2. I recently received an updated DGNLib from a client. However, I have made some additions to the previous DGNLib that they had provided. Is there a way for me to compare the two DGNLib files? Maybe only import new levels, element templates, feature definitions, etc.? 

Thanks in advance, I appreciate any guidance you have.

  • There is a series of "Migration Tools" that can be downloaded from the Bentley Files area and possibly this Forum's Wiki. In these tools, there is an Element Template Utility that can convert the exported Element Template XML file to and from Excel. Similarly, there are tools for the Feature Definitions and Feature Symbologies XML files and Excel. There is directions (somewhat limited) with each and the XML import/export of Feature Def/Symb must be enabled with a CFG Variable.

    The Element Template spreadsheet is very wide. The Feature Def/Symb Spreadsheets are not as wide but use multiple tabs for all the the different types.

  • I agree with Rod. It is easier for you to know what changes you made, than what they have changed. I would create a separate DGNLIB that has only your additions in it.
