AVEVA E3D Design Model Limitations

Attribute data from .drv files is not transferred to the Design database

The data generated can be clash-checked in Model. However, the DGN data cannot be thoroughly checked for clashes within itself unless a separate Equipment (EQUI), Volume (VOLM) or Structure (STRU) is created for each primitive

Large amounts of data are generated for both AVEVA E3D Design and Review. The data, for example, may cause problems with the Draw module. The module can not cope with a large number of primitives under a significant element (such as an Equipment, Volume, Structure, Polyhedron). There is a limit of 4096, but performance is severely degraded with more than 500. The user can use the GROUPP command to limit the number of primitives in an element in AVEVA E3D Design

Specifically, it is advised to read large macros with Model in dev tty mode and then use the TRACE OFF command before running the design macro
