Yeah, what TIG said. I don't have Sketchup here, so sorry I couldn't be more precise.

Hi Scot,
You are welcome. Glad you solved your problem.
If yuo right click the circle in Sketchup you should be able to select properties and define the smoothing of the edge. Default value is pretty rough (12, or so) but just change it to whatever value you need.

RE: [Plugin] DXF_export v0.0.4 (2011-10-28)
Hi Scott,
Perhaps your shape is too advanced for the DXF_export tool to handle or there are errors in your drawing.
Try to upload your Sketchup model here and perhaps someone with a Sketchup Pro version could try to export it to dxf. If it also fails your drawing is bad, if it works the DXF_export tool doesn't support your model.

RE: [Plugin] DXF_export v0.0.4 (2011-10-28)
Hi JΓΆrg,
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but here's one problem I have.
1. I create a 100mm x 100mm rectangle with some random circles, see attached file "Untitled.skp".
2. Using your fine tool I export it as "Untitled.dxf".
3. To print out my drawing I open the .dxf file in eDrawings (from Solidworks, version 12.2.0.110) and press the print button. I then see a windows where the drawing is scaled to 1:18.3926?
4. If I change the "Active sheet" setting "To scale (1 to 1)" the result is that the drawing get's massive big - you can only just see a small corner of a circle on an A4 sized paper.
Isn't that strange? And by the way, if I print out from step 3 the actual rectangle on paper is something like 137mm x 137mm and not 100mm x 100mm.

RE: Help me convert .dxf to .skp.
Thanks Gaieus, for always helping out. You're the greatest. I'll try and work on it later tonight.
Edit: I believe the .dxf is in mm. I work in mm too.

Help me convert .dxf to .skp.
Hi,
I have this .dxf file that I hope someone with Sketchup Pro will help me convert to .skp.
Once I'm done drawing I hope you will help me make it a .dxf again.
It's a .dxf of this amplifier case by hifi2000: http://www.modu.it/slimline.html
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the late reply.
No, I haven't disabled "Display units format" and it still opens in inches:

You are welcome, and thank you (!) for the plugin!
Here is an example of a sketchup that he says opens in Inches:

RE: [Plugin] DXF_export v0.0.4 (2011-10-28)
Thanks for a great plugin! I just sent a .dxf file to a friend and he could open it perfectly in SolidWorks. Next step is to CNC the part.
Edit: One thing. My friend just mentioned that when he opened the .dxf in SolidWorks it was in Inches even though I made it in mm. He could just change to mm, but still...
