Please forgive my lack of knowledge of InRoads, but we only have to deal with it here and there. We received a survey that was done with InRoads, and one of the files we received is the Topo file, which is a 3D DGN with the points and line strings displayed. I would like to be able to convert this to a 2D file to use in our plans. When I try to do the simple "Export>2d...", I lose almost all the elements that originally had an elevation (something other than 0). I have also tried to copy the elements into a 2D file from the referenced 3D file, but they again disappear.
If needed, I may be able to just get by using the 3D file, but it doesn't let me fully edit the elements in the 3D file. I can change the symbology, but I can't rotate elements or anything like that.
Is there something that I am missing that could give me functionality that I need?
Thanks for the help.

Ken:
Have you tried opening opening a 2D Master file then referencing the 3D into the drawing and then merging the reference into the master? This is what we usually do to turn our surveys into 2D plans.

Check that the 2d file view attriubutes for constructions & tags are turned on. Also check the displayset attribute.
