      hi!
      sorry for my bad english, i'm french.
      I have a problem: i imported a plan from Autocad (*.dwg file) in Sketchup
      all the buildings are made of lines, so I can raise its because they are not considered as faces...

      For example: this building cross-shaped, how can I transform it into a face?

      Thank you very much.

          You could trace over the edges with the pencil and it should fill in as long as your drafting in AutoCAD is accurate. Or you could use the Make Faces ruby. Just type that in on the search function at the top right of your browser...

          Hope this helps ya...

                You could draw a face in the same plane as the lines, then select all and Right-Click->Intersect
