Summary

Saving Entities with big amount of Xproperties in dgn thrown an exception

Solution

Fixed in version 7005.0.2

There is a limitation with the size of Xproperties when saving in dgn format. In our format (vdcl/vdml) we do not have such a limitation.

The total size of data for all Xproperties of a vdLayer must not exist 512 bytes and for other objects must not exist 127 bytes.

We made a correction so when you save in dgn we limit the vdXProperties to 512 bytes for vdLayer objects and 127 for other object types, so you will lose big xproperties data if you save them in dgn format.

The same limitation is with dwg format but instead the limitation is 16K bytes.
