DGNMAPPING
Quick Reference
See also:
■ Manage Translation Mapping Setups
Allows users to create and edit user-defined DGN mapping setups.
Summary
The
DGN Mapping Setups dialog box on page 560 is displayed. It can also be
accessed from the Import DGN Settings and Export DGN Settings dialog boxes.
The import/export process translates basic DGN/DWG data into the
corresponding DWG/DGN data. The Standard (default) mapping translation
is used to map DGN levels, linestyles, lineweights, and colors to equivalent
DWG layers, linetypes, lineweights, and colors.
The
DGNMAPPING on page 559 command allows you to create, modify,
rename, or delete mapping translations based on your company’s CAD
standards such as:
■ Change DGN level names to appropriate DWG layer names
■ Remap unsupported DGN linestyles to DWG linetypes
■ Remap lineweights and adjust color mapping
Therefore, you can streamline the import/export process while minimizing
the need for more extensive editing.
The list of translation mapping setups is sorted by mapping type, based on
where it was accessed from. The Standard mapping setup is always on the top
of the list. This mapping setup is the default translation based on the file being
imported or exported. It is not editable.
