Yes. I found that works. I was just advising that one shouldn't just set a very small Near value and expect it to work for all camera positions.

I checked the .dwg file and when regenerated, the linework intersects in those locations, however, there are gaps when the circles/arcs are simplified graphically, even when using autocad. So, there is an issue importing these elements

I did try Didier's projections and Thom Thom's edge tools and still having a heck of a time getting faces formed. Even drawing new lines/edges is not helping.

Are there any tricks in prepping the .dwg prior to import that will help?

Happy to help.

I was mostly using Outliner to show how deep I was going in to the nested component.

As long as you don't need the material or already have it saved in a local collection, deleting the material from In Model is a great way to unpaint things no matter what the material is applied to. Sometimes I get models from other people that are so screwed up, deleting the materials is the easiest way to deal them.

Thank you msketcher!

Yes, that worked.
Thanks Dave!

Perfect.

Love this style of presenting.

StyleBuilder so badly needs some love to make custom style creation a more worthwhile endeavor.

Thanks Rich, and I couldn't agree more strongly.

That's good to know. Thanks for the update.

Thanks!!!!

Thank you. I was able to place lights based on your suggestions.
It's been log enough that I forgot how that worked.

Here's their hand held unit, http://www.trimble.com/construction/DPI-8-Handheld-Scanner
No experience with it. Then there is also their full size 3D scanners. Both create point clouds not images, but with the full size scanner, once it's done scanning, you can remove it from the tripod and using an adapter mount a camera and take pictures to cover almost 360°. This will give you images and can be used to colorize the point cloud also, though all in Trimble software of course.

Thanks Dave. I might just try that password too.

Well, What a bummer. As I was just ready to purchase the Studio version and noticed that Bentley has changed the "bundling" and eliminated the free version all together.

Any idea of how much for a package or have they gone subscription based?

Thank you! That did the trick.

Good design, model and style presentation. 👍

The weather has relented enough to get table and pizza oven in final place.
