Microstation graphic group in cells not showing correct value.

Hello everyone.

I have run into a problem while validating dgn data. I need to check for elements that have specified graphic group, however I have run into a problem where cells seem to show igds_graphic_group = 0 even though in my editing software I see that it has graphic group set to non-zero value.

I have tested this in FME 2016.0, 2017.0, 2017.1.

Bellow is a snippet of one file I am working with (there are many more, over 8000) where I have encountered this problem.

 

 

This is what I see in my editing software (MGEO, which is local version of microstation)

No matter if I expand named cells, or keep just insert points of the cell, I always get igds_graphic_group = 0. Lines work just fine, there I get graphic group I see in my editing software.

 

 

Any help is really welcome.

Thanks,

Radek

Hi @drejkzet

unfortunately this seems to be a DGN Reader limitation at the moment. I have filed PR #82202 - DGNV8: Cell igds_graphic_group is always 0 with enhancement request. Please contact our Technical Experts team through https://www.safe.com/support/report-a-problem/ if you would like us to keep you updated on the PR progress.

I'm pleased to let you know this issue has been resolved in FME 2019.0 beta. The igds_graphics_group attribute is read properly now for cells.
