NOTE If a host folder is read-only, any DWG xrefs will be created in the My
Documents (Windows XP) or Documents (Windows Vista) folder.
Ignore All External References
Referenced DGN and DWG files that are external to the specified DGN file are
not included in the resulting DWG file.
If the DGN file has self references or references to other design models
contained within the DGN file, these references are included.
Attach as DGN Underlay
All DGN external references in the DGN file are imported as DGN underlays
in the resulting DWG file. Referenced DWG files remain xrefs when imported.
NOTE New DWG files are created in this process. These new DWGs are not
automatically deleted.
Conversion Units
Select the appropriate conversion units for the translation. The imported DGN
file contains working units (imperial or metric) called master units and sub-units.
The selected working units (master units or sub-units) are converted
one-for-one into DWG units.
Master Units
Specifies that one master unit of the imported DGN file converts to one DWG
drawing unit.
Sub Units
Specifies that one sub-unit of the imported DGN file converts to one DWG
drawing unit.
NOTE The master units and the sub-units of the selected DGN file are displayed
next to the buttons for reference.
Explode Text Node to Text Elements
Text node elements in a DGN file are multiple lines of text stored as one element,
and are similar to MTEXT objects. Check this option to maintain text which
follows a path.
When cleared, multiple lines of text are maintained as a single multiline text
object.
When checked, multiple lines of text are separated into individual text objects.
