My CAD lines showing up solid, that's fine as I need to go to Object Style and override them, if I do this I expect to see them broken just with this procedure surely?
but they still don't show up broken so I have to do it with VG overrides, then it works when I override it, for me no biggy but if I had multiple sheets with the CAD insert surely overriding through the project with Object Style? rather than sheet by sheet??
what am I missing?

try to set with your LTSCALE in your autocad drawings like 1 , 10 , 100 and see if helps before linking in revit ?
Thanks will try that
but if I am overriding in Revit from Object Styles surely that will change it?
it will with VG?
yes, another way is to change in the properties of ltscale value of certain objects in autocad so you can see the outcome in revit?
AutoCAD has both Imperial and Metric linestyle. If you have Metric unit and your linetype is Imperial, then the linetype will show up as solid. To double check, I would always check the system variable MEASUREMENT & MEASUREINIT. The value should be 0 for Imperial and 1 for Metric.
Hi, sorry been away from the forum
I tried the LTScale ideas and metric vs imperial, not making a difference so its not that
its no big deal really VG works fine its just having to do it over 3 floor plans, but no issue
Upload the sample DWG so we can look at some other factor in the DWG that may be overlooked.
Heres a bare bones with the TEST 1 .Dwg file and a changed the SRZ red layer and the OBJECT A line (the big circle)
no change on screen (that would work if I VGed it
cheers
I've look at the DWG file. Apparently a lot of the objects have override color, linetype, lineweight and linetype scale. Typically Revit will only read DWG file with only bylayer setting and not override.
I did a quick cleanup to make the override object set to by layer.
When linking in the Revit file, you will notice the linetype start appearing. See attached
try to clean up your autocad file by OVERKILL command and see if helps. thanks
Thanks heaps
you know as I was uploading it I thought I bet there is some legacy in my CAD files. That template is 30 years of building up imported surveys and layers until I started using Revit and just never spent the time cleaning it up
excellent, I think I need to spend the time on that now. I kept thinking I need to clean this up more than just purge command
FYI they often come heavily loaded from the survey CAD so I will need to work on that
cheers
