      PLEASE.... can anybody help..!

      I have a lot of this kind of work coming up very soon. As you can see in the movie below on opening the grouped .dwg file it becomes distorted and fragmented. The original file was a .dng file converted to .dwg in Autocad (on a windows machine as it is not possible to do this on Autocad 2016 on a mac )

      Does anybody know why this is happening or if their is a better way of converting .dgn file to be used in SKUP PRO 2016. I have over 100 files to convert and work on and at the moment I can't if this keeps happening.

      All help, ideas welcome ASAP

      Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.

      THX


      Please download sml movie and watch what i am experiencing
