FileFixer certified for MicroStation
V8 XM Edition.
CLEARWATER, FLORIDA,
USA — Axiom, the world's most
experienced developer of time-saving MicroStation solutions,
announces the release of FileFixer version 8.7b for
MicroStation V8 XM Edition. FileFixer, Axiom's solution
for MicroStation design file corruption, is ready for clients
as they move to XM.
FileFixer version 8.7b for MicroStation
V8 XM Edition certification began in 2005 with early XM betas.
Five years' worth of carefully collected and catalogued client
files were thoroughly tested to identify differences in behavior
between MicroStation V8 version 8.5 (V8 2004) and 8.9.2.52
(V8 XM). FileFixer for V8 was enhanced to accommodate
key differences. Clients using MicroStation V8 2004 will also
benefit from the FileFixer for V8 version 8.7b enhancements.
When a V8 file's level table is damaged or missing,
graphical elements become "stranded" on levels which
aren't defined. In such cases MicroStation V8's Element Information
command displays a blank level name for the element —
a blank level name is a symptom of level table corruption.
When such "stranded" graphical elements
are modified (moved, scaled, changed symbology, etc.) MicroStation
always "moves" the element to the Default level
— without warning and without choice. One FENCE MOVE
command could completely destroy the level structure of a
design — all graphical elements ending up on the Default
level.
FileFixer for V8 offers a superior solution
and keeps the user in control. When a file's level definitions
are damaged or missing, FileFixer for V8 moves each
stranded element to a new level, but retains the original
level relationships for all elements. Elements which previously
occupied a particular level are reunited with all other elements
which also occupied that level. New level names are auto-generated
and can be used as is or can easily be edited in MicroStation's
Level Manager dialog to restore their original labels.
FileFixer for V8 version 8.7b now
has the ability to create a missing level table (to which
repaired levels can be added). Previously, there were cases
of design file corruption where it was necessary to manually
import a healthy level table by opening the Level Manager
dialog, selecting File | Import, browsing for the correct
level table and hitting <OK> prior to FileFixer repair
processing.
