This object can then be placed in the project file as a 3D reference.<BR /> <BR /> David Tue, 18 Feb 2014 13:22:38 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Make-an-inserted-drawing-dwg-visible-in-3D-perspective/m-p/137500#M73608 David Maudlin 2014-02-18T13:22:38Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Make-an-inserted-drawing-dwg-visible-in-3D-perspective/m-p/137501#M73609 I think this article can help you. In the first steps it talks about saving ArchiCAD content as DWG, but from that point the steps are the same as in your case:<BR /> <BR /> <A href="http://www.archicadwiki.com/HowToSuperimpose2dFloorPlanOnto3dModel" target="_blank"><LINK_TEXT text="http://www.archicadwiki.com/HowToSuperi ... nto3dModel">http://www.archicadwiki.com/HowToSuperimpose2dFloorPlanOnto3dModel</LINK_TEXT></A> Tue, 18 Feb 2014 18:00:35 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Make-an-inserted-drawing-dwg-visible-in-3D-perspective/m-p/137501#M73609 Laszlo Nagy 2014-02-18T18:00:35Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Make-an-inserted-drawing-dwg-visible-in-3D-perspective/m-p/137502#M73610 Thats helpful.
