jgeorge Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 I am a new V-works user & am having problems figuring out how to import a dwg. file ( topo map from surveyor, R14) into my title block drawing or vis-versa. When using the import command I always get the message that you can not import a new file into an existing file that already has something in it. There obviously is a way to do this but I can not find info in the manual on how to do it. I am using v-works 8.5.2 on a Mac G4, 9.1 os. Quote Link to comment
Lotarc Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 As far as I know u have to import the DWG fike to a new file, adjust the scale and than u can transfer data from your existing file to the new one or vs. Quote Link to comment
jgeorge Posted March 30, 2001 Author Share Posted March 30, 2001 What command is used to transfer data from one file to another? Is it simply copy & paste? Quote Link to comment
MikeB Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 or you could use the work group referencing to reference the entire file, with the layer structure, and then delete the reference but keep the layers in the drawing existing drawing. These are options in the work group referencing dialogue. Good luck Quote Link to comment
