Show Hidden Items Select this check box, if you want to display all entities in converted DGN files, irrespective of whether they are hidden or not. NOTE To use this option, you must select the Convert Hidden Items check box. Convert Lines and Arcs Select this check box to convert lines, splines, curves, arcs, circles, or ellipses in DGN files. Merge Lines and Arcs Select this check box if you want to reduce the complexity of the model in the Selection Tree by interpreting adjoining lines with the same color, level, and parent as a single item. Clear this check box if you want to leave these elements as separate items in Autodesk Navisworks. Convert Text Select this check box to convert text into smart tags in Autodesk Navisworks. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores text in DGN files. Shape Merge Threshold Specifies the number of vertices for MicroStation shapes. If the number of vertices is less than or equal to the Shape Merge Threshold value, Autodesk Navisworks merges all shapes on the same level or in the same cell and with the same color into a "Shape Set". Convert References Select this check box to convert reference files in DGN files. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores reference files. Ignore Unres. References Select this check box to ignore unresolved reference files in DGN files. If this check box is clear, the file reader attempts to convert all reference files, and presents you with a dialog box to find any unresolved reference files at a run time. Use Level Symbology Select this check box to enable the level symbology from MicroStation. This makes items in Autodesk Navisworks take their color from level rather than use the default element color in MicroStation. Align Global Origins Indicates whether Autodesk Navisworks aligns global origins in referenced DGN files to the origin of the master DGN file. When DGN files are appended together with this check box selected, their global origins are positioned in the same place. Use Materials Indicates whether MicroStation's materials are exported and assigned to elements. Select this check box to assign the same textures, diffuse, ambient, and specular colors to the elements as in the MicroStation scene. Clear this check box to assign the same colors to the elements as in the MicroStation scene. Material Search Paths Enter a semi-colon separated list of paths to the MicroStation palette (.pal) and material (.mat) files. These paths are used by the file reader to convert MicroStation materials. Convert PDS Data Select this check box to read object information from Intergraph's Plant Design System™ while converting the DGN files. PDS information is read from Intergraph's DRV files. The file reader looks for a DRV file with the same base name as the DGN file in the same directory. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores PDS data. Convert TriCAD Data Select this check box to read object information from Triplan's TriCAD™ while converting DGN files. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores TriCAD data. Convert TriForma Data Select this check box to read object information from Bentley's TriForma™ while converting DGN files. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores Tri-Forma data. TriForma Dataset Search Paths Enter a semi-colon separated list of paths that the file reader uses to locate Triforma data set files. You must include the paths to user-defined datasets. View Number Enter the required value to selects a specific view for loading. The file reader uses the level visibility of this view when converting items. For example, enter 0 to use the first active view. File Readers Node | 421
