MicroStation specific settings

Seed file

You can select a Seed file. Its input unit is used if this has not already been defined and saved in the current DGN file and an alternative color table specified.

Other

Ignore clip boundaries of reference files: irregularities that may occur when clip boundaries are too close to elements are excluded. In particular, this applies to XRefs and reference files of MicroStation.

Adjust dimension line arrowheads: you can use this to optimize the size of arrowheads (arrows, for example).

Optimize / split hatching: hatching styles consisting of multiple colors, lines or pens are split into several hatching styles during export.

Analyze range box for text: when this box is checked, the actual extents of text are saved when exporting. The values saved are then used to re-import this text into Allplan. This way, text lengths are transferred in an optimized manner.

Directly use source offset: when this box is checked, the source offset is written to the .dgn file as the origin.

Resolution

You can set the subunit per main unit and the number of units per subunit. The main unit is taken from the General Settings tab, Coordinate and length parameters area. The default for the subunit is mm (corresponds to a value of 1,000 when the main unit is set to m) and 10 for the number of units. This results in a maximum workspace of 429 km in MicroStation. These settings apply to the master file and to all reference files. When importing data, you cannot make entries in these boxes. In this case, the current values are displayed for information purposes only.

Font files

You can set the path to DGN or SHX font files here.
