Importing DWG as Drawing & Fills

Lingwisyer · Wednesday

Hi all,

I am wanting to import a DWG Drawing and have the Solid fills replaced by 25% fills, but I am not getting an option to pick a translator when I place the DWG, and nothing seems to change if I set the translator that I want as the default for importing beforehand...

Ling.

Do you mean set a Template file in the Save Options page of the Translator?

A Template is relevant only during DWG Export.

I had the same issue today. It looks like it's completely ignored when you place a DWG as a drawing and then think about exploding it into 2D. (Which is kinda mad.)

No. I am placing a dwg file from a consultant as a Drawing and am wanting the aCAD Solid Hatch to come into AC as 25% Fill.
