Export-DGN Configuration File

  • Last UpdatedMar 06, 2026

In order to produce an attribute file from Export-DGN, create an Export-DGN configuration file, and inform Export-DGN of its location in either of two ways:

  • Setting the environment variable EXPLANT_CONFIGURATION to the path of that file before starting Model, for example

    set EXPLANT_CONFIGURATION = %AVEVA_DESIGN_EXE%\config.sample

    If the same configuration file is always used, this is particularly useful.

  • Use the export option 'configuration' ‘<filename>’ command in Model to set the path of the configuration file. For example

    export option 'configuration' ' C:\configs\config.txt'

    If different configuration files for different exports are used, this is particularly useful.

The Export-DGN log-file contains the path of the configuration file used for the run.
