I want to transform data from a database to CAD(DWG to be exact) with certain symbology. I have a Microstation cell library. How can I use the symbols in this library as a DWG template, either in the parameters and/or in the DWG styler? Transforming to DGN works fine, but I can't seem to be able to transform the cell library to be used as a DWG template, and using it as is results in an error.

Hi @fmenco​ ,

 

Could you try converting the DGN Cells to DWG Blocks before using them in the DWG template file/DWGStyler? We have an article that might help you accomplish this: https://community.safe.com/s/article/microstation-cells-to-autocad-blocks
