About model and data exchange with 3rd party solutions: Revit, Solibri, dRofus, Bluebeam, structural analysis solutions, and IFC, BCF and DXF/DWG-based exchange, etc.
Sorry if this is elsewhere. I searched but didn't find an answer.
I'm using and Xref'd DWG in a project that I need to export to send to an engineer. The engineer wants the Xref bound to the file when I send it. I can't seem to configure translation to bind it on export.... There is a setting in Translation setup that says Place Drawings into: with the choices Linked Xref drawings and Single DXF/DWG File. This seems obvious but doesn't seem to make any difference. Both choices produce a separate Xref folder....
I think I understand what that choice is about in the translation setup. I just need a way to bind the Xref on export.... The dumb way is to save the project bind the Xref, export the DWG then quit without saving the project as a way to "undo" the bind... that is crazy....
