      Have some trouble importing autocad curved solid because some faces of the solid dissapear, i have already tried changing the import options in sketchup but the problem is still there, do i need to change something in my autocad settings so it works in sketchup?

        Try scaling up your AutoCAD model x100 before exporting, then import into SU, and then scale back 0.01. I am assuming that you are trying to import a 3D model.

        Regards,
        Bob

          Thank you Watkins, It sort of solved my long term problem. But with too many curved entities, and also with double curved objects (meaning it has a curved surface with a bulge also)it still gives problems.

          But this is really of a great help for me.

          Thanks once again
          With best regards

            You might need to scale up even more, say x 10,000. Worth a try.
