TPC Desktop 2010 - CAD Interface
Open Alliance
As a member of the Open Alliance, TPC can read and write native cad files like DWG, DXF and DGN. The Open Alliance recently added support for AutoCAD 2010 plus many more enhancements that are now part of TPC Desktop 2010.
Shared Surfaces
TPC now shares surfaces directly with CAD files. We support AutoCAD's PolyFaceMesh es and Bently's MeshFaceLoops.
When you import a surface from a CAD drawing, TPC locks the surface so that the faces don't change, then reconstructs the contours if you want it to. Now you can do anything you want with the surface as if you had created it right from TPC.
AutoCAD 2010
TPC supports AutoCAD 2010 DWG / DXF files. The last severl releases of AutoCAD all used the same file format (2007, 2008, 2009) but not 2010. It's a new file version and TPC supports it.
Write DGN
Previous versions of the DGN drivers from Open Alliance did not write DGN files well. Font sizes were off, hatching did not work properly, raster images were not supported. As a result, TPC recommended that you write a DWG file and import into your Bently product.
TPC Desktop 2010 now writes a pretty nice DGN file directly. There are still things we are working on, but we think you'll like the results as is.
