Drawing conversion tool as a Forum feature
unearthed posted a question in Wishlist - Feature and Content Requests
What about VW writing a drawing conversion tool for the forum? People often ask here for others to convert a file to and up or down version. Yes I accept it wouldn't always work but .mcd's are quite a hassle and also there would be more opportunities to share workflows and ideas (many basic features don't change between versions). It would be great for 2D - often a plan view conversion is all that's needed, also great for worksheets and reports, symbols and so on. If the tool couldn't do it it could flag\alert the uploader and they could then escalate their request as a forum request.-

Hi, I was recently handed some VW 9 (!) plans of a theatre with the request that I create new files in more recent versions of VW. The files open fine, but there are elements (lines, text, etc). that are locked (this is true for the extremely out of date title block). How can I gain access to these "locked" elements to manipulate them, or do I simply need to start the drawing all over again? rick
