2D dwg in ArchiCAD 3D view

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello everyone,
Is there any way I can view 2D dwg file (which I merged) in ArchiCAD 3D view? I merged 2d dwg file of a site plan on top of which I built something in ArchiCAD, but when I go to 3D view I only see the ArchiCAD elements
Thanks

Import your 2d.dwg file as a GDL object and set your .dwg translator to convert geometri to 3d.

You would probably have to do from step 3 as you already have the DWG file:
