I often need to open a CAD file which has AEC objects (surface labels, spot heights, manholes etc). I don't need to edit or do anything to those AEC items, I only need to make 2D edits to the sheet (text boxes, add circles, add poly lines etc - real basic stuff that AutoCAD for Mac can do) and replot the drawing.
BUT AutoCAD for MAC (2025) does not even show the AEC objects - just a clumsy AECC object box in the place of rendering the file useless - meaning I can't even view the CAD file, let alone make a NON AEC edit.
There surely must be an object viewer enabler - I have achieved this on AutoCAD (or AutoCAD LT) previously - but damned if I can find it for the Mac version. Seems like a fundamental thing for Autodesk to provide so that people can at least view files with AEC objects in them.
