How to work with DWG Import Dialog Box General

To work with DWG Import Dialog Box General

Step 1

  1. Overwrite: Create new Lightscape model with the same name as the DWG file. Merge: Add the objects in the selected DWG file to the current model.

  2. The effect of lighting in a model depends on the dimensions of the model, it is important to indicate the units that used when you are loading a DWG file. So we can use the Millimeters, Centimeters, Meters, Kilometers and Inches.

  3. The units in the model do not represent whole physical units, set a Scaling Factor.

  4. As Is: Create no additional blocks.

    As One Block: Group all top-level entities in a single block.

  5. Set the number of straight-line segments into the system divides arcs, circles, and arc segments in 2D polylines.

  6. Set the amount of surface deviation when importing ACIS geometry.

  7. Import layers that are turned off or frozen.

  8. Close the top and the base of entities that have thickness.

  9. Convert thick 2D polylines, 3D polygon and polyface mesh to quadrilaterals in a smoothing group.
