bully712 Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 What version of CAD are you using? I was having a similar problem with ADT 2004 and VIZ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bully712 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 James, You should read this Thread. I had the same problem with exporting PLines into Viz4 from ADT 2004. I eneded up reinstalling Autocad 2000, until I get the upgrade to Viz 2005. http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/showthread.php?t=7079 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
