Missing layers

Anonymous — Tue, 26 Jul 2016 17:55:29 GMT

Hello,

I can view all items as they are suppose to show in Trueview but upon inserting the drawing in AutoCAD I can't see any of the walls, grid lines, ceiling, etc. Any assistance or insight would be greatly appreciated. FYI, other people in my office running the same system can see items just fine.

Most likely they have the Object Enabler installed and you don't.

It is looking that way as they are using Architectural Desktop 2017 and I
am using AutoCAD 2011

I don't know if they will show up because your aotocad is kinda old.

Your best bet is asking them to use AECTOACAD or EXPORTTOAUTOCAD command.

Ask them to SAVE TO AUTOCAD and send you the resulting file: they can find it under the big red A on their ARCH2017 program window.
