I can save the floor plans one by one correctly. Then i want to merge them in a file. <BR /> When i do this i can't use ctrl+c and ctrl+v (copy/paste) command because of the same block name in plans. Then i use the <B>"insert&gt;external reference"</B> command to place the drawings in autocad. i am using "bind" command to completely merge these drawings in the same file. Everything is okey until this step. Then when i want to change something on this drawing i have to explode each floor plan. When i explode it, all dimensions' extension lines getting bigger and dimension styles changes then reading the plan is getting very difficult. <BR /> <B>How can i merge them by without problem.?</B><BR /> I save the plans from layout but it doesn't export floor plans' layers. It is only transferring layout's layers. <BR /> You know we must distribute the projects to other engineering disciplines. It is a big problem for me and others.</R></DIV><BR /><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="before.jpg" style="width: 668px;"><img src="https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/13053iDE2BDC7547B7E38C/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="before.jpg" alt="before.jpg" /></span> Tue, 30 May 2023 11:13:35 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/exporting-to-autocad-and-dimensions-problem/m-p/60137#M8367 Anonymous 2023-05-30T11:13:35Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/exporting-to-autocad-and-dimensions-problem/m-p/60138#M8368 after Mon, 15 Oct 2007 08:57:06 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/exporting-to-autocad-and-dimensions-problem/m-p/60138#M8368 Anonymous 2007-10-15T08:57:06Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/exporting-to-autocad-and-dimensions-problem/m-p/60139#M8369 Hi ogabson,<BR /> have you tried to change the extension line of the Dimension style that Autocad uses? Its a simple procedure but it must be done inside Autocad.<BR /> <BR /> Petros Mon, 15 Oct 2007 10:01:16 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/exporting-to-autocad-and-dimensions-problem/m-p/60139#M8369 Petros Ioannou 2007-10-15T10:01:16Z
