DWG Import Help
-
Hi all,
I am a beginner with SketchUp and I am having trouble when I import a DWG file which I have been sent by an engineer.
I do not have autocad so i cannot make changes to the file. I have opened the DWG in Adobe Illustrator and within that program the file is clearly visible (I have attached a screen shot). When I import the DWG into SketchUp, all I can see is random straight lines (screen shot attached).
When importing the DWG, I have set the scale at metres which I believe to be correct.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Just about impossible to say without seeing the DWG file - are all the layers turned on, is one drawing linked to another, what version of DWG & SKUP???

You could install Draftsight or Nanocad and work the dwg there natively. They're free.
