I transformed SHP to DGN, but all features are in one color. I need to apply features in color set by level. Even with seed file set or DGN file with right colored features as a color source, features from SHP data are in the right levels, but have no individual color by level. Seems like transformer is putting SHP feature in right DGN level (by attribute) but with default color, not color by level.

Hi @is​ ,

Can you use a DGNStyler for your features, prior to writing to your DGN file, and check "Color > Color By Level = Yes"

DGNStyler

This should now set the features to be the colour from the seed file.

Yes, it really helps - great to see features in colors after 2 weeks of monochrome result.

Thanks a lot, andreaatsafe!
