jmartinarch Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Will it be possible to open 2012vw files with a vw version more than 5 years old? (VW architect v11) Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 No. Forward compatibility has not been part of the package. Ask the originator of the file to export it down to your version. Or if it's not proprietary, I could try convert it for you. A huge file can be emailed via several exchange services (eg www.largefilesasap.com), or if it is on FTP server that's better. I just sent you an email with same offer. -B Quote Link to comment
cad@sggsa Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Would it work to save the new version as a DXF/DWG and then importing it into the old version? Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Seems like this could work, and would be worth a try if direct porting is not successful. But it still needs to come from the original file of the more recent version. If dwg/dxf is available, the export to earlier vwx version is also available. Or maybe you meant some other method? -B Quote Link to comment
cad@sggsa Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Aha! So it would have both options then. Cool! Quote Link to comment
