opening dwg in archicad 9

Hi,

i hope someone can help me:

until version 8.1 it was really easy for me to open a dwg file, because there was an automatic translator in archicad and the file get the scale i want...

in version 9.0 when i open it seems there is no translator and the file appears so small and the only way i have to rescale it is using the edit menu and changing size manually....

Am i missing something?? probably i am doing something wrong...

thank you
regards

You can import and use your old translator if you like.

If you go to DXF-DWG Translation setup, you can find it under your tools menu. You can take "Brows for more translators" then you can choose your old one that worked.

Another option is that you duplicate the Default and change the settings accordingly.

HTH.
Cheers.
Ben
