Guite and Chris, I just created a successful export based on your suggestions and will definitely use this method again. Thanks! I very much appreciate the help.
Chris - I was fortunate enough to be able to attend your presentation at this year's Basecamp - nice job!
Greetings Modeling Aces,
As my subject line states I am working with large AutoCAD files with multiple XREFs. When I go to import these drawings to SketchUp I find that every layer from the file is brought in and visible, even if it is frozen or locked in the original file. This slows up SketchUp and is terribly rough to manage. I have tried multiple methods to import only the layers I want with no success. Any ideas for a work flow that would easily allow me to export/import only the desired layers? I am working in AutoCAD 2007 and exporting to AutoCAD 2004 for import into SU.
Thanks,
Frances
