Quickly view design file differences!

DgnCompare  ™

 A component of MicroStation Acceleration Garage ™
 
 

An easy way to accurately compare design files.

You are sitting there looking at two MicroStation design files of the same structural part. They are both about six months old. You know one of the files has been changed. Which one has the change? Are there any other differences? Did you make some other changes for a later project? Did you put the second set of changes in the correct file? The answer to all these questions is: DgnCompare.

DgnCompare permits users to distinctly see the differences between any two MicroStation design files.

DgnCompare distinctly shows the user which elements have been added; which elements have been deleted and which elements have had only their color, weight, style or level modified from the initial version of the MicroStation file.

Select the differences you want to see, or don't want to see!

Expanding the usefulness of the program, options are included to focus on or ignore elements of a specific type, level, color or style. For example, you could choose to see only the differences between text elements on levels 24–25 in two files or you could choose to ignore any differences between elements of styles 0–3 or you could ignore some elements and focus only on others. In addition, DgnCompare has the ability to specify a tolerance factor so that if any elements are within the specified tolerance they are considered identical.

DgnCompare reports differences graphically or with text.

For each design file processed, DgnCompare generates a graphical report design file (user's option) showing the deleted, added and modified elements. DgnCompare intuitively uses different colors to show the user which elements have been modified (yellow), left unchanged (white), deleted (red) or added (green). The report design file has the same name as the original design file, but has an extension of .drf (design report file). There is an option to generate a text report of the differences.
