I am working on AUTOCAD 2020
So I received a P&ID drawing from a contractor that is drawn with P&ID objects. They are unable to be exploded or manipulated as I need them to be. I tried EXPORTTOAUTOCAD and nothing changed. I've tried editing it as a .dwx file and that didn't work. I detached the xref file in the drawing and that didn't work. I downloaded the Plant 3D object enabler and that allowed me to view object snap points but I am still unable to explode the SLINE objects, so that didn't work. I am at a loss at how to work on this drawing. Is it even possible without the Plant 3D program and/or having the contractor EXPORTTOAUTCAD on their end?
Why has Autodesk made it so difficult to modify these objects across programs? Thank you for any suggestions that you may have
