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: set subfeature text to Align
Charlie,
I would recommend that you review the PlaceAnnotation2 method in the Library module of the xfmStdOpsLib.mvba (e.g. the XFM Standard Operations Library) delivered with Bentley Map in the ...\Bentley\Map\vba folder. The code in that method will…
Re: How to add rotation to Cells when importing SHP files

Could locateOp have a memory leak?
Hi
I have a strange problem. I use LocateOp operator to check if a Feature with a given GmlId is present in the XFMdesignfile before creating that feature. This to avoid duplicates.
After around 350 checked features PowerMap crashes! It could look…
Re: VBA - SubFeature Collection - XYZ (3D)
I suspect the error is being caused by the fact that in an XFM feature collection, the root feature does not contain any geometry. The root feature acts as a "container" which only holds references to all of the "member" sub-feature instances. Depending…

Stefan,
As mentioned, the Bentley Map V8 i (SELECTseries 2) 08.11.07 release provides the new Interoperability API services, documented in the ...\Bentley \Documentation\GeoDataInterchangeAPI.chm help file. The " gdi connect " keyin is also new to…
Re: VBA - accessing linkages
After looking at the provided budynki_shape2.dgn file, it is at first not apparent which elements contain your user attribute data. Using pure MicroStation scanning and elements (e.g. no XFT constructs) it seemed that .GetUserAttributeData(lIDGL) always…
Re: Find feature by uuid

Re: Need a way to identify centroid within a shape
Erik,
No worries and your memory is absolutely correct as that was in fact one of the VBA example applications I provided during the Bentley Map development workshop at the 2010 Be Together user conference. Hopefully the example will at least provide…
Re: Not able to list the featuredefinitions.
Erik,
It seems that the first method used exposes a defect which is encountered when the FeatureMgr.GetFeatureDefinitionByIndex method is called with an index that references a feature class that is not included in the schema, which of course you are…
Re: Gdi import from oracle spatial ommits compound polygons geometry (gtype=1003,elem_info=1005)
...you could try to set the _USTN_USERNAME environment variable to the name of the user workspace (e.g. SET _USTN_USERNAME=geo_example_designer) in the shell before starting your session.
Re: Custom application in PowerMap Field V8i
Your VBA based applications which leverage the XFT object model should work directly in Bentley PowerMap Field w/o modification in most cases. However you should be aware that while Bentley PowerMap Field provides redlining/markup capabilities it does…
