Rubber sheeting for MicroStation

[Hrvoje]

Anyone knows for any other rubber-sheeting tool for MicroStation, beside
GeoGraphics' warp and MRF Rubber sheet, none of those two is good enough ?

Thanks,

MicroStation's own "raster warp affine / helmert" is a keyin only, and does
the job.
There is also Iras/B, which was Intergraph's raster editor, now owned by
Bentley.

Yes I know, but I need to warp vectors, not rasters, Bentley support have
confessed to me that Warping/Coordinate setup inside GeoGraphics does not
work as it should be, after I asked few questions about it. So I am looking
for an alternative solution.

Bentley's ReproGraphins will warp both raster and vector, but whetehr it
does it how you want, I could not say.

Do you try GeoDefinder or GeoCoordinator ?

Descartes works fine to warp raster and vectors. It offers a very complete
interface to register control points, choose the transform mode (affine,
helmert, projective, polynomic)
You can set/move any amount of control points and you'll see the residuals of
the adjustment in real time). You can also write an ascii file with the
parameters of your transformation if you know how to deal with them in
matritial form. If you have questions about this... I'll try to do my best :)

Thank you, Dave, for the information, I remember we had a similar discussion
on the group few moths ago, and taking your advice about ReproGraphics, I
took a look into it, but it does not meet my needs. What I need is to warp
vectors with taking WEIGHTS into adjustment, GeoGraphics does offer to enter
a weight for a control point, but whatever you enter there; the result is
always the same, no matter what options you use.

If you are interested in a subject, take a look at the following: enter a
weight for a control point, save the points to *.ctl file, open it in any
editor (plain text file) - you will see that last data about the point (that
represents weight) is 1, it will always be 1 no matter what you enter in
MicroStation. Another interesting thing, is you reopen the file in
MicroStation, it will read it as 0. You can change the weight in the file
directly, but MS will still read it as 0. Anyway, whatever you do with
weights: you will always get the same results after warping. Bentley support
have confirmed this fact and also told me that none of their software take
weights into account, so, I need something else. It seems like I will end up
writing my own warping mdl.
