❖  There will now be an option of inserting this data By Level or Flat (default).

❖  I chose the default (Flat). Another window will now come up. This DGN file does not have an associated projection with it so I chose Use scene projection. The DGN file or any file actually, does not need to have an associated projection with it. As long as you already have a scene projection set, this file will project on the fly.

❖  If your data doesn't come into view on the scene, right click the BLOCKS layer that was added and select Zoom fit.

❖  If you added your data By Level, this is how it will look like in your Layers Description box.
