    Hi! I have a personal cell library. I added instance data to some of them. When I import them into a new project, there is no longer any instance data attached. I imagine that I will have to add the instance data each time after import?

    That sounds about right. Each instance in the DGN file has specific DG properties written to it, using the schema as it existed at time of placement. If that schema is changed - such as renaming an existing property - the data written to the instance…
