General information on assignments

Assignments let you define how properties in the source system are mapped in the destination system. For example, you can define the arrangement on layers or the assignment of colors and linetypes.

Allplan automatically assigns properties in the source system to properties in the destination system. If you have activated Allow incomplete assignments in the Source File for Conversion dialog box, not all of the properties have to be assigned in order for the transfer to take place. If you want to change an assignment manually, you can do so in the Configuration for Conversion dialog box. To activate the dialog box, click Modify in the Import or Export dialog box.

Properties that are unassigned are marked by an asterisk (*) beside the tab name. Click the tab.
You can quickly see which properties have not been assigned in this tab by activating Show unassigned only.

The assignments can be saved in configuration files. The program ships with standard configuration files for the most important systems. You can also create your own configuration files, however. For more information, see Using configuration files.
