With that autocad users will make all with sketchup(free) then export to AC at the end!
Thanks you for them! -
eh, it doesnt have any options... it didnt separate the imported DWG in layers, anything... imported a single 3D model, while in autocad there is the 3D model plus several 2D drawings, which failed to be imported into Sketchup.

Thankyou

I just tried this plugin, to no avail. For me, it ignores everything except dynamic blocks, and does not preserve layers. Feel free to check the DWF and SKP Import files yourself if you're curious.
I'm currently awaiting an answer to an email I placed to Simlab Support. I'm been extremely unimpressed with both their products and their support team's attitudes in the past, so I'm really hoping they'll improve on prior experiences. I'm thankful it's a trial version.
Here's the DWF (zipped because the forum doesn't accept DWF)
