    Default PDS components in clash reports

    I modelling in PDS (Plant Design System) Clash detection is possible in PDS but its a tedious process where as Clash Detection is very powerful in Navisworks which I regularly use for Autoplant Models. I wish for Clash detection of PDS models it would show the PDS Component details in the report.
    If anybody has tried this then please advice me.

    Aren't the PDS components contained in a DRV file? In which case, they'd come through in the model provided the DGN and DRV files are in the same folder and thus into clash reports? Sorry, bit of a guess dragging things up from deeper recesses of my brain...

    "Check the Convert PDS Data check box if you want to read object information from Intergraph's Plant Design System while reading the .dgn files. PDS information is read from Intergraph's .drv files. Navisworks looks for a .drv file with the same base name as the .dgn file in the same directory."
