I'm trying to import a 11MB dwg file into VW2009. There's quite a few problems that I can't figure out :
1. the drawing itself (floorplan) is scaled right, but all the hatches need an additional scaling with factor x 1000 (using the RP for that). Why weren't they scaled ?
2. the object is extremely far away from the absolute 0,0. I'm talking 15 km, more than I've ever seen before. Is there an option during import to avoid this awkward position ?
3. Right after importing the drawing, I'm facing a whole list of new design layers, named : _Layer_Crop-xxx, where xxx represents a value from 0 up to 287. Many of these additional layers have a few objects, so I can't just delete them.
4. Several symbols have a selection area that is way larger than the object(s) would have you to expect. Scale to Objects results in a zoom number like 0,004%. Top right would be the actual symbol, while the rest of the area seems empty. I already checked for text objects size 0, arc centers etc.
5. The VW file is app. 13MB, but very hard to handle. I've seen an Out Of Memory window more than once.
6. Out of curiosity, I've imported the same dwg drawing in a version 12.5. All the same problems seem to occor, except number 3.
I'm looking for a way to make this into a workable VW document, I'd love to be able to continue to draw in this file.
Providing the above information is sufficient, who can offer help ?
