Applies To Product(s): Bentley WaterCAD Version(s): 08.11.04.57 Environment: N/A Area: Layout and Data Input Subarea: Original Author: Terry Foster, Bentley Technical Support Group Problem Description I have a model with ~1500 GPVs in it. I need to batch morph them into TCVs, however I need to keep the labels because they are GIS labels that need to remain the same. Normally when a GPV is morphed into a TCV, the new label will be TCV-# or whatever is set up under Tools Options Labeling for a TCV. In this case, the user has labels that were created in a GIS file and needs these labels to remain the same whether it is a GPV or TCV. Steps to Resolve Since the only fields that will remain the same between the GPVs and TCVs are the X/Y fields we will use these fields to take care of the labeling issue. Open the GPV flex table and sort the X field in ascending order, then soft the Y field in ascending order. The reason for sorting the Y field, also, is in case there are GPVs with a duplicate X field. Copy the Label, X and Y fields into an Excel sheet. Run the Batch Morph tool. Open the TCV flex table and add the X/Y fields if needed. Sort the X field in ascending order, and sort the Y field in ascending order. You can see that the X/Y fields match what is in the Excel spreadsheet. Now you can copy and paste the labels from the Excel sheet into the TCV flex table.
