Hi all,
It seems that the more I try to learn this program, the more problems I find with every step....
I am trying to create a set of architectural plans and the original site plan and survey are in autocad...
I started from scratch, created the sheet layers, design layer,and imported on the design layer, a DWG file. It imported fine (or so I thought), as soon as it got imported a new weird design layer was automatically created with the name of the cad file. My original design layer was not editable anymore. I created a VP from the new weird design layer, it did it but some classes are turned off and was a terrible pain to get them on or vice versa in the VP.
Then I tried to import a second CAD file to create another VP.I did it on the same weird design layer. It imported on top of my previous one...or something. everything looks like a huge mess. I hardly can separate things because there are so many blocks.
And when I tried to create another design layer (after I saw this mess, I thought that may work), to import the second CAD file, as soon as I opened it, it already had the first CAD file imported...why?? Is there any trick to import CAD files?
Please help me guys!!
