Marcus Bertilsson Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Maybe a little late but anyway, My first ER to the sneak peak for PU1: - "Selective Closed Profile Intellishape Creation": Please let us deside if we would like the non-selected geometry to folow with to new feature or not. This because sometimes at least I have wery much geometry in the 2D planes. Especialy when importing 2D dwg that shall be modelled up to 3D. It can be dwgs for heavy machines, big buildings etc. It must be easier to translate 2D to 3D. Some parts of the world is still flat but I'm working on it / Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Right now it is set to convert non selected to construction and keep it with the new shape for later use. We can put an ER in, but it cannot go into PU1 at this point. The best work around is to do a ctrl-c on the selected geometry then a ctrl-a to select all and delete then ctrl-v to paste the wanted geometry. Other than that, try to eliminate as much as possible on the import using layers. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Bertilsson Posted December 22, 2005 Author Share Posted December 22, 2005 Sorry to say! Using layer is not an option. Most of the time the fysical objects are drawn on the same layer and only the annotations/drawingframes are possible to turn of because they are on another layer. Please put it as an ER. / Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cborer Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 It might help to have layers in the crosssection of Iron Cad! ...not just in the import filter (old ER of me). Copy paste from one layer to another and later choose the one which generates the shape. I tried to import a architectural plan of a house, it was impossible to use as well because of many hatched areas. So I still think layers would help a lot to us. I agree with Marcus that the import of 2d needs to become some better. But you're on a good way! Carlo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Bertilsson Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Layers in the crosssection of Iron Cad. Yes, please! That would realy fix many problems I have right now. And decrease the need of AutoCAD. Right now I have to use that for some tasks, layouts for example where I have to have a arcitect drawing as reference in the background. And this with layers/linetypes/color are a main reason. / Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
