Eoin R Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Can anyone help me. I am trying to export a 3D model of a building to Sketchup. We used to do this previously at ease in earlier versions of Vectorworks generally exporting as a 3DS file which could then be imported into Sketchup. Problem we are having now is that only a single layer is exporting and as the model is made up of several layers covering different parts of the building this is hopeless. I have tried creating layer links and Design Layer Viewports to combine different parts of the model but neither of these approaches seem to work. Anybody have any advice on this. Many Thanks Quote Link to comment

Eoin R Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks for that but my issue is being able to export to Sketchup via 3DS. Following my post I submitted this as a bug to NNA and it was confirmed that this is a bug and is not working for VW2010 & 2011. It was working in earlier versions so is something that needs to be fixed. Quote Link to comment
