Linked CAD - poor quality

[Anonymous]

Hi!

I have an issiue with Linked CAD - it is very bad, everything is "dancing". Is there a way to improve quality of linked dwg?

I think i found solution - i had to explode every pline and block and than purge again before linking to Revit

@Anonymous hello, you can also try to set your viewres value 20000 in autocad before linking into revit. thanks

I had the same problem, this was how I managed to solve it, select the CAD link and then enter the "Edit Type" menu on the properties, set the import units to meter and the scale factor to 1 (if you need even higher resolution use a scale factor of 10 or 50), then apply said settings.
That will probably make the link turn huge, you can scale it down to the desired size by either changing the scale of the view where you have it or by using the "Scale (RE)" option on the Modify tab while selecting the link.

It seems like the problem is due because normally revit exports the link as if the drawing were a few milimeters big. so to save up resources it aproiximates curves with very few lines.
