I'm stumped in Translation

Anonymous
Not applicable
I've set up a new dwg translator and I'm importing existing dwg details, I've set all the line conversions correctly and there is no problem there, but once imported, the pens don't show up correctly. I have spent a few hours already trying all the settings in the translator and pen scenarios, back and forth. I'm ready to pull my hair out. I didn't seem to have this problem in v9. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim

It's a bug in AC10. It's due for repair in the first hotfix.

Until the hotfix shows up, I think the translator will import by pen index number only, whatever settiing you have in the translator. The only workaround to get similar looks as in Autocad is to use a similar pen set as in the imported dwg.
