In Microstation there is an attribute called "View Dependent" It has a toggle to either be dependent or independent. Is there a way to set the view dependencies during translation? Right now it seems to always translate as independent.
Question

Hi not sure I understand you correctly do you mean setting the layers visibility? Then I would consider using a seed file defining the output layers visibility.
Hope this helps.

Would it be an option to set this in the SEED file (per created level) and use that SEED file as the output parameter?

+10@robyn_studts The View Dependent flag in Microstation determines how text and cells are displayed when the entire view is rotated. For example, a view dependent feature will rotate when the entire display window is rotated. In FME 2008 support for view dependent/ independent status using a format attribute called "igds_element_view_independent" was introduced. igds_element_view_independent is the location for storing this value when reading DGN, and can be set to control the value for features written to DGN. https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/igds/Feature_Representation.htm Hope this helps. Happy FME-ing :-) SRG
