Greetings Turkay,
This type of data manipulation is best done programmatically. If you could provide a sample design file and details on what elevations should be moved to which levels, I would gladly craft a sample VBA application which could be used…
I reviewed the provided text2xfm v1.5 application and it appears the ability to process multiple text elements still exists. If a " Fence " is active when the " Process " button is pressed then all of the text or text node elements in the fence contents…
This macro is for V8i only.

The attached macro provides an alternate method of searching and locating XFM features. This simple yet customizable search option may be a good alternative to using the generic and complex capabilities offered…
To assist Bentley Map users in generating these LAT/LON coordinate labels. See the " Creating LAT/LON Coordinate Value Labels with Bentley Map " wiki article for more information.
This macro runs on V8i only.
To place latitude/longitude labels use label_latlon2.mvba Bentley Map example VBA application. This example Bentley Map application has been developed using VBA so that it can be easily modified by anyone requiring similar…
Hi
I need what could be call a XFM version of the Topology Tool called "Associate Linkages"
I have some XFM based centoids with attributes.
Then with the Topology tool "Create Shapes" I create all the complex shapes and there is nice areas on…
Alan,
The ability to edit multiple XFM feature instances unfortunately is not included in Bentley Map at this time. We have received a number of customer requests for this functionality and are working to provide that capability later this year…
Hi
I have a funny problem. When I try in a VBA program to update a Property to a blank or empty line PowerMap keeps the old value. If I use any other string the property is set to the new value.
All my Properties are strings. There is no XFM schema…
Users of Bentley Map often ask how they can generate text labels for their features containing LAT/LON coordinate values based upon the currently active geographic coordinate system. Users sometimes want to place the labels interactively (such as the…
Hi
I have tried both examples from the Bentley Map XFM prommers Reference Guide:
Private Sub ProcessFeatureDefinitions()
Dim featureDefCount As Long
featureDefCount = xft.FeatureMgr. FeatureDefCount
Dim featureDefIndex As Long
For…
By making a macro recording I can figure out how to start, how to lock rotation, how to set scale and to point out placement coordinates!
But
How do I set the name of the PlotSheet model that is going to be created? and how to I set the name of…
Greetings Erik,
The " Copy Centroid Business Properties To Polygon Feature Instances " example provides a minimum user interface...
...which allows the Bentley Map user to select a centroid (or point) feature class and polygon feature class then…
...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.
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…
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…
...in any Bentley Map installation look for the " Bentley Map V8 i (SELECTseries 1) VBA Programmers Reference Guide " program shortcut to open the xft.chm help file. Expand the table of contents as follows...
...or simply use the "Search" capabilities…
...you should be able to use the CreateFeatureByUuid method of the FeatureMgr to create an instance using a known UUID as in the following from the help.
Private Sub MySub(rootUuidString As String)
Dim oFeature As Feature
Set oFeature = xft…
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…
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…
Jiri,
For the following compound geometry...
SHAPE(SDO_GTYPE, SDO_SRID, SDO_POINT(X, Y, Z), SDO_ELEM_INFO, SDO_ORDINATES) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------…
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…
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…
Attached is very brief VBA example (and sample design file) which uses XFT to rotate cell feature instances using a "ROTATION" property. Please note this sample does not perform the following verifications...
Which cell feature class is being…
