Run Export-DGN

To translate a model file into a MicroStation input file the Model module must be open.

If the model to export is large, then it is a lot quicker to output the file if the device tty mode is used rather than the graphics mode of Model and then switch tracing off (trace off) and set the representation as required. The MODEL EXPORT commands can be stored in a AVEVA E3D Design macro file.

For example:

repre level 6

Set drawing representation level

repre level pipe 6

Set drawing representation level for pipes

repre level nozz 6

Set drawing representation level for nozzles

repre level stru 6

Set drawing representation level for structures

export system /explant

Load the Export-DGN export driver

Export option 'seedfile'Ê
'c:\seedfiles\seed1.dgn'

Select a non-default seedfile to use

export file /equip over

Specify name of the output file

export holes on

Process holes in components

export /EQUIP colour 3
export /PIPES colour 4

Select names of AVEVA E3D™ elements that are to be exported.

export finish

Create export data

Refer to Element Representation for further information of powerful colour selection and element selection techniques.
