Tracing over a DWG

[stevesayber]

Hi Guys,

I have recently upgraded to pro and am in the process of working on a file with multiple dwg(cad) files. All is going well except one issue I have.

I have created multiple floors and I have placed a dwg file on top of my created floor. I would like to follow some of the lines on the dwg but i would like the lines to intersect with my floor, as I am going to be pushing down. At present it is creating a new surface rather than intersecting with my floor surface ? Any ideas on how to get around this ? Thanks in advance and I hope I explained myself clearly enough.

Steve

Are the DWG lines in a group or component? If so, either explode the group or component or cut or copy the desired lines out of the group/component and paste them in place on the rectangle. You may also need to select everything and run an Intersect operation. Posting your model or at the least a screen grab would be a big help.
