Anybody seen this: When I save as .dxf and open it, the title block is shrunk down in the left corner of AutoCAD. The model geometry, dimensions, and the text within the title block are all OK it's just the border and boundaries of the title block that are shrunk down. I have attached a jpeg of one such occurance. I talked to my VAR and they told me the issue is known by Solidworks. How do put in for an SPR on the Solidworks website?
Thanks,
Chris
Chris,
Yes, I have seen it. All I had to do was adjust the scale of the format
when I inserted the dxf file.
I should also note that this only happens if I am creating a new drawing in SWX 2011. If I export an existing drawing, the dxf is fine.
Are you using Autocad 2010 or 2011?
AutoCAD 2004
I would be willing to bet there is an incompatibility problem.
Scott,
I found a possible incompatibility issue. I had my export options set to R12 since one of the engineers here, for a reason that I cannot give you, still uses R13. When I set the export options to AutoCAD 2000 or higher, no issues at all. Guess it's time to updrage that engineer into a more current version of AutoCAD. Thanks for the help.
Chris
Chris,
Your welcome. I am glad you at least found your issue. These things can drive
you nuts sometimes!!!
