I’m working in a file where it has suddenly become very slow to switch from 3D to 2D views. The opposite (from 2D to 3D) is not a problem, and once I’m working in 2D everything runs fine. But every time I switch from 3D to 2D, the file takes 40–60 seconds to load, which is n...

I am trying to model a spiral stair with a height of 4060 mm. The stair top is not linked to a story, but for some reason I can't make the stair height more than 2940 mm.I am trying to circumvent this by making another stair on top of it, but then the issue is that the heigh...

I am working in a file where I have a pointcloud. For some reason, I can't snap to the pointcloud anymore in section and elevation views. When the cursor is placed near a point from the cloud, it changes to a cloud (see screenshot) instead of the cursor and I can't click the...

I work in a project where I've rotated the plan in Plan View 23 degrees. When I export the file to DWG, it exports with no rotation.Is there any ways to change this, so the exported DWG follows the rotation chosen in the view map? I would really like to prefer to not rotate ...

I tried to go back to the most recent file which didn't have this issue, copy the point cloud from there and paste it into the problematic file. But unfortunately the issue persists, which indicates that the issue is not with the pointcloud itself, but due to some setting in...

Thanks, but unfortunately that's not it. The translator has "Project Origin" instead of Survey Point chosen in "Match File's Origin", and I can't find any other setting in translator where Survey Point is an option.I start to suspect that it's simply not possible to export D...

Hm, I used the Open Object dialog, but to no luck. However, I can't find anywhere where to choose a translator in this dialog. What am I missing here? Google is no help, unfortunately.
