I am working on a team project and have been given on Open Roads Design for a Parking Lot and Bus Loop. The designer used Civil Geometry to create many of the 3D Linear Elements and from them, I was able to make Terrain Objects for the various pavement types and assign Surface Templates to them. My last step was to run Curbs around many of these 3D Linear Elements as Corridors or Linear Templates. So far, so good.
Then, as I was getting near the last 3D Linear Element, my Open Roads files began throwing .NET errors and multiple MicroStation has stopped working, send an email to Bentley and eventually the Abort, Ignore, Retry dialog box. I have a post about this issue - but at this point, I can't even open the file without these errors and most Open Roads tools and dialog boxes are no longer available.
So, I am hoping to export all of the critical elements to native and try to rebuild the design in a new file. My problem is, many of the 3D Linear Elements were create using no name for the Horizontal component. I tried to assign a Feature Style, which looked like it was going to also assign a name to the horizontal element, but after assigning the style, the only named element was still the profile and it was still its original name.
Without a name for both Horizontal and Horizontal components, export to native does not work. So as my subject line states, is there a methodology to assign a name to elements like this?
