Yes - sorry I forgot to mention that. The fanout feature on igds_level
is working because the polygons and the labels that do come through, go
to their assigned levels.

I have now tried bypassing the Cloner and directly link all the levels
to the output but I am getting the same result - the cell polygons are
still being dropped.

Thank you for your time.
Have a nice day!

In the destination file have you set fanout to igds_level?

Subject: [fme] Combining DGN's - Dropped polygons

Hello FMEr's

I am having a problem combining 3 design datasets, into 1 final 
design. The master design datasets contain labels, a cell and 
polygons. The master label and polygon datasets will change and I 
want those changes to be reflected in the final design in the future. 
At the moment I have set up FME to read all 63 levels within the 
master datasets.
At the moment I have used Cloner to combine the datasets but in the 
final design, the level structure is retained but I lose some of the 
polygons. The polygons that get dropped are 'cell polygons' 
(identified in Microstation as Cell Header Type 2's) ie they have 
holes within the external boundaries, all the other 'complex shapes' 
are copied through and on the correct levels. Is there a way to 
identify these cell polygons? Initially I thought that the type 
needed to be specified, ie igds_shape or igds_solid but this didn't 
seem to make a difference.
Also when I use ValueMapper after Cloner, all the polygons get copied 
through, including the cell polygons but I lose the level structure, 
everything gets dumped onto level 1.
I am confident it can be done but I can't seem to get the right 
combination. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Note: using FME Workbench Beta Suite 2006.

Thank you for your time!
Have a nice day!
Regards
