Interoperability OpenCitiesMap/OpenRail
Hello everyone
I exported an .shp file and a .tab file from OpenCitiesMap.
At this point, I create a new .dgn file in OpenRail Designer and in the "Attach Reference" panel, I add one of the two files exported from OpenCitiesMap.
The newly referenced…

Re: Exporting a buffer
Charlie,
The ability to save buffers as well as other spatial analysis results as XFM features (including both element geometries and properties) does not currently exist. This capability is being added to Bentley Map V8 i for release in Q2 2009…
Re: Adding Spatial Data to Existing Records
As Jerry correctly comments, there is currently no out-of-the-box way to accomplish using standard Bentley Map functionality. This workflow can however be accomplished with some customization that makes use of the Bentley Map API. The basic approach is…
Re: Strip XFM data from features interactively or via code
Gerald,
First thank you clarifying what was actually occurring. I wanted to ensure that you were aware of the purpose of "Propagation Rules" so that you could apply them as desired in your workflows.
Next, the copied feature instance should be seen…
Re: Possible to define single XFM feature for point-cell and point-text features?
Janice,
The answer may not necessarily be "no" as there are often different ways to achieve the desired result using Bentley Map and XFM data modeling. If you could send me a private message with sample SHP file, XFM schema and design file representing…

Re: Memory issues when re-formatting XFM features
Greetings Again Janice,
I would be more than happy to investigate this issue. As before, would you please post to our FTP site an archive containing the SHP file, seed design file, schema, cell library etc... so that I can replicate the unexpected…
Re: gdi explorer and vba
Stefan,
You will most likely have to use regasm.exe to manually register the generated type library, something that is done automatically when Visual Studio compiles the assembly if the projects "Build > Output > Register for COM interop" option is…

Re: XFM feature symbology to element templates
Tom,
Correct, the MS_GEOXFM_NO_DYNAMICSCOREDFEATURES=1 configuration setting is either on or off (not set) and can only be changed after stopping/starting a session. If you are using "promote" you are creating native XFM feature instances so disabling…
Re: Memory issues
Greetings Veeresh,
Have you any custom code involved or are you only using standard Interoperability functionality? Could you provide the exception.log that was generated?
export 3D buildings to 3D shape file in Bentley Map SS2
Hi,
I have 3D building features (Smart Solid with attributes) in Bentley Map and I want to export them to 3D shape file (multipatch or polygonZ).
I've tried to do this by Export via FME but it doesn't work properly. I've got good attribute table…

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: 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…
Re: Bentley Map Standalone fails when trying to publish i-model of a XFM-design file
Erik,
Would you be able to perform an i-model publishing test on a similar design file that does not contain any feature instances with special/accented characters in the feature class and business property names? I'm wondering if those characters…
