Re: PROBLEM EXPORT SHAPE FILE
Alder,
To remove the orphans, you can use the following workflow:
Create a new empty design file using the same seed file that was used to create the EXPORT_SHP_1.dgn design file.
Open the newly created design file and reference attach EXPORT_SHP_1…
Re: Dynamic where clause in Interoperability?
Krister,
I've posted a complete example here which includes a sample COM server written in C# which demonstrates one approach to calling the Bentley Map Interoperability managed API methods from VBA. The following sample VBA form should give you some…
Re: Geometry type of view in Oracle Spatial
Jakob,
A few questions.
Do both views refer to the same base table?
Is each view defined in such a way as to guarantee that all rows returned contain the same geometry type?
For the AFL_BROEND feature class, what is the layer_gtype parameter…

Re: Possible to define single XFM feature for point-cell and point-text features?
Janice,
If all feature instances are to come from your single SHP file, you could create 2 attachments in the Interoperability application and use different attribute filters to identify one set of features for your point-cell instances, and another…
Re: Missing attributes in Shp export
Karl,
You should be able to use the " Change Attributes " command along with a " Fence Filter " to move your elements to a new level. For example...
Make a copy of your design file for backup purposes until you have validated the changes.

Re: Possible to define single XFM feature for point-cell and point-text features?
In an effort to broaden the communities knowledge of the Property Based Annotation capabilities available in Bentley Map, I've posted a new " Using Property Based Annotation (PBA) Replacement Text During Interoperability Imports " wiki article which provides…

Bentley Map export to ESRI shape file
Hi all
I am using Bentley Map 08.09.04.78 and am trying to export to ESRI shape file.
Is there a "stroke tolerance" when exporting arcs? The tolerance (distance between original arc and stroked line string) appears to vary. Maybe it is a fixed angle…
Interoperability Key-In
Hi All,
I am working with Bentely Water (Bentley Map with a bit extra) and I need to create a menu option (or button) to both launch the Interoperability dialog for import SHP and TAB files, but I also need to have a button that will open an Oracle…
Re: unlocking after post
Rob,
I've not heard of that particular scenario, and you're correct, after the post operation the feature instances should be locked once again, preventing modification in the local design file cache. What version of Bentley Map are you using?
Possible to define single XFM feature for point-cell and point-text features?
I have a shapefile that contains some features I'd like to map to point-cell XFM features, and other features that I'd like to map to point-text FM features (so I can use PBA). I would really rather not create two separate XFM features, which would necessitate…
Re: gdi import fails
Krister,
In the Bentley Geospatial Administrator, when registering your Oracle Spatial layers, if you do not assign a sequence generator to the layer you have effectively defined a "read only" layer (e.g. users can query geometries but cannot post…

Re: Problems filling polygons and MapManager
Hi Ian,
This was fairly easy to reproduce, just attempting to open a TAB file with spaces in the filename seems to do the trick. It seems to be an issue with bot the V8 XM Edition and V8i versions of Bentley Map.
Sounds like something that…
Re: Is there anyway to export dgn text elements to TAB text
Tom,
I believe a change request that could potentially expose text string values as business properties for inferred features would be worthwhile. This would allow you to simply open a MicroStation design file in Bentley Map and use the Interoperability…
