no line work or details which I open/convert an IFC file

Hi all

I am trying to open/ import a Structural IFC into AutoCAD MEP or Architecture. I am using the "Open" tab in the top left corner of the screen within the AutoCAD symbol drop down menu. I browse to the file and click create. I goes through the cycle to create the DWG file but when it finishes the import there is nothing at all on the screen. The created DWG files have data in them as they are all well over 2kb. but I can not see any thing. I have tried to zoom all. There are a few layers listed and they are all unfrozen and turned on.

Any ideas??

Bill

By chance did you notice this at the commandline? You never mention it but it seems to be a reality with your IFC file here in MEP and ARCH
