The difference is that as it merges the data on export, it strips all civil data (the same way a merge to master would with ORD elements). It also only includes the levels of merged elements giving you a cleaner export on terms of layering.

Interesting idea Mark. What difference does it make to export a referenced model as opposed to the model itself? Is it the way ORD sees the information?

I'll give it a go.

hmm, we usually use an empty dgn "container" file, reference in whatever models we want to export and use a dwg export settings file that has the "merge" options set. Works much better and cleaner than direct exports from the live models. Not sure if it will resolve your issue, but worth a try.

Hi Ken, what version are you running?

I tried dropping the Complex and it now exports.

Any idea what the issue might be?
