Hello & Import Question
-
Hello
I've just joined the premium site and starting to use Sketchup Pro 2015.I have a DXF file that I'm importing into Sketchup. The DXF import is coming in with a .083 face in the Z (Blue) axes on each line. Is it possible to remove all of the faces and only keep the bottom most line? Maybe a plugin extension?
Thanks in advancew00dbutcher

I'm not quite following the problem. A small section of the file would help. Are you saying that the geometry is duplicated a small way up the blue axis?
If that's the case...and there's no offset on the X or Y axis, you could try the Flatten plugin which will place everything on Z=0.
If you want to get rid of any faces; and there are too many to manually delete, then I'd suggest deleting them using boolean deselection.- Switch to wireframe and select everything. Maybe group it for safety's sake.
- With the group still selected, switch back to normal view, Hold down Shift and lasso select everything again. This will select all the faces (and their new outlines...as they can't exist without them) but will deselect the group.
- Press delete.

Alan,
You are correct, for some reason my exported DXF's have extra lines and faces.
Your suggestion helped a bunch. Thank you!
