I also get the same issue when trying to create a new dataset from a Trimble DC file in a completely different directory on a different drive in a new DGN file and a new project.
For any following this post;
The issue was caused by having empty fields in the Linking Codes, they need to be populated even if the codes are not been utilised. See the attached screen shot.
Just a small "glitch" in the programming if you happen upon a perfect close traverse and try to store it using the traverse commands (i.e. Compass rule). You get an error stating that the desired accuracy is not achieved where in actual case it's infinitely…
Hi Michael,
Unfortunatley they do not exist amongst the supplied systems but the Geod.ma tool works great (as in previous versions) so that I can add the needed user defined systems.
Thanks,
Chris.
There is a few issues with the Control Editor, the first being that the back sight (back bearing / azimuth) information does not come through (when reducing a Trimble DC file). I can only assume that this is also related to the instrument height issue…
I have just received notification from Bentley Support that all of the listed issues have resulted in either a Bentley Trouble Report or a Bentley Change Request.
This means that they have been looked into and the appropriate course of action will…
Phil,
I should mention that we are in Australia, as when I called the toll-free support line (for Australia) they seemed to think that being in Australia would change the product(s) that we should be using, essentially that perhaps there is a better…
I am running PowerCivil for Americas V8i (as replacement for PowerSurvey GEOPAK).
I am importing a new contour and feature survey and so have started with a blank 3D dgn file, created a new project and in the process of creating a new dataset…
Hello Civil Users,
There is a problem which can occur in the following product versions under specific circumstances which might interest you.
Affected versions are:
Bentley GEOPAK Civil Engineering Suite V8i - 08.11.05.31
Bentley GEOPAK…
Derricke,
I have emailed through the raw Trimble DC file through to Bentley Support.
The DC file in question is a V10-70 and the instrument height field is indead preceded by the E0NM code, as seen below (underlined and in italics);

I have just upgraded to PowerCivil for Americas V8i V 08.11.05.37 from PowerSurvey XM (as it is no longer supported).
I am in the process of creating a new dataset by importing raw survey data from a Trimble DC file and have noticed that the instrument…
When processing a raw DC file in PowerSurvey V 08.09.06.31 the instrument heights are 'lost', reverting to 0.000m, which obviously leads to incorrect processed data.
The instrument heights are correctly stored in the DC file, as shown in…
Phil,
I have contacted our Account Manager several times regarding this issue and unfortunately the best they are able to offer us is a temporary evaluation license to GEOPAK Site, which of course requires the full version of MicroStation V8i,…
Hi,
We are currently using PowerCivil for Americas V8i V 08.11.05.39 and are noticing significant delays in visualising the data (small datasets - less than 300 points)
It is not GEOPAK slowing things down - it does it's calculations then goes to…
Hi Chris,
I'm not all that familiar with the Survey>Plans Preparation tools (the tools you mention appear on the Survey Menu Bar under Plans Preparation), but I took a look anyway.
It apears as though the settings for these tools is on the…
Bentley PowerCivil for Americas V8i V 08.11.05.39
Need license ASAP - we currently have licenses for Bentley PowerSurvey (GEOPAK) but the new version for this is the above mentioned PowerCivil version and so need the licenses for this…
Neil,
I find the best way to label the contours is to use the settings is the "Load DTM features" dialog box.
Here you can specify the text font, size, colour, level, decimal places and most importantly, the distance between labels.
…
Does anyone have any idea when licensing for this product will be created for user's outside of the Americas?
Does anyone have any idea when / if there will be a PowerCivil V8i released for use outside of the Americas?
We need to start using…
