Hi
I have a DGNv8 3D CAD drawing of a bridge i want to load into FME since i have been tasked with converting it to a different format.

The issue is that not all parts of the bridge loads/reads properly, most notably the deck of the bridge is missing. Most of the bridge is drawn using smart solids.

Here is the bridge in Microstation

Here is the bridge in FME. All i have done is add a reader and an inspector.

And if u look at the feature information for those missing parts it says nan.

 

I have attached the dgn file in a zip file. I hope some can help me or confirm that it is not possible in FME.

Thanks for taking the time to read my question.

What version of FME are you using? A couple of years ago, FME wasn’t able to properly read smart solids. I think that has changed now in more recent versions

I am using FME 2024.0.1

And yes when tired googling the problem i came across this forum post saying that the functionality should have been added in 2023. But it doesnt seem to work fully or maybe i am doing something wrong.
