Hello,

 

 

I have i Workspace where i want to output some basic DGN surfaces.

 

When the i look at the data that goes in to DGN writer they are of the type "fme_surface". But when i open the new its the same shape but build of a lot of fme_lines.

 

 

Before Writer:

 

After writer:

 

Is there some setting in the writer that i might have missed that can cause this problem?

Hi @cool-guy-samuel,

I'm sorry that you've encountered this. Currently, FME is unable to write surface geometries to Microstation DGN. Our development team is aware of this and is looking to add this capability (FMEENGINE-8470) and I will let you know when this is available in beta.
