    Using a DWG file as background

    Greetings,

     

    I'm strying to strat an SSA project from scratch, and I want to use an AutoCAD DWG file with a street map and contours as a background.  When I try to import it into SSA 2013, nothing displays.  Selecting the CAD Layers button does nothing either.

     

    I can import images just fine, but have been unable to get an imported DWG file to display.

     

    Any trick to this or something I'm missing?

     

    Thanks,

     

    Kurt

    BTW, for me, it works just as expected in SSA2012...
