Compilation of the DXF/DGN Macro Control File

  • Last UpdatedFeb 21, 2023

The MicroStation/J macro control file, dwgcontrol.bas, should be compiled after editing.

  1. On the Utilities>Macro window choose Browse

  2. Select dwgcontrol.bas.

  3. Running the macro constitutes compilation.

It is possible that when the macro is run an error message will appear. In this case the necessary DXF/DGN translators are not yet available to MicroStation and to make them available it is necessary to use the import function on any DXF file:

  1. On the file/import menu choose DWG or DXF and load any DXF file.

  2. Now repeat the Utilities>Macro actions above, and exit MicroStation.

  3. On restart using the DXF option, the font translation will be active and a true rendition of text should be seen.
