Hello,

I am trying to read or write the various text attributes such as "Title" or "Comments" listed in Microstation under File -> Properties. I have checked all format attributes in my DGN Reader as well as trying different reader parameters to get the attribute to show up in my inspector - no luck so far.

Is there some way to read these as FME attributes?

Thanks in Advance

 

Also exposing all the text attributes doenst help?

Are these actual features (points, lines etc)?

Thank you for your reply.

 

Yes, I have selected all of them and searched for the value I typed in via Microstation - no dice.

 

My DGN file contains point/line/polygon geometries.

Which reader version are you using? V7 or V8?

Hi @philipp_voelker

unfortunately, these dgn-file properties are not supported by FME at the moment. Could you please suggest this functionality as a new idea (please see NEW IDEA in the top right corner of this page). If this functionality is urgent and/or critical for your project, please submit a support case through https://www.safe.com/support/
