Dwg files imported from AutoCad LT 2022 into VW 2019 lose all text. I've tried 1) Use dwg file detected units 2) Change current VW doc units to match specified dwg file units; 3) (Advanced import options) setting model space to 1:200 (to match ACAD); 4) Also setting "This Scale) to 1:200. It imports graphics at scale and otherwise fine, but no text appears. Using "Custom Selection" tool to select only objects whose type is text results in 358 items found. If I invert selection, delete, then select all you'd expect to have 358 objects found, but find zero. Anybody know what's up? Here's the import log. DXF_DWG_DWF Import Log.pdf

Is it possible to get a highly reflective, metallic rendering?

Any ideas on how to render metal mesh curtains such as those by Cascade Coil? It'd be great to do a video walk-through with lighting or projections on a semi-transparent, highly reflective and sinuous mesh.
