ingoerik Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Whenever i start importing dwgs the first import fails, only the layers and materials are imported. When i import the dwg again everything works fine, also the next dwgs work as expected. Its only the first import that fails. Does someone else have this problem ?

Tech Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Ingo, We have not heard of this issue before. Can you please send a DWG file where this occurs for you, and also send a screen shot of your Import Options so we can test with this here?

ingoerik Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Okay, i'll keep an eye on it, it was just the second project from the same client, i will see if its file related and want to talk to the client to get some more info from which program he exports it and how. Btw, how can i send you a dwg, to which adress ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Ingo, The geometry is pretty far from the origin, but it imports properly the first time for us. If you quit formZ, relaunch, and then try to import this file, do you get the error again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingoerik Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Thats funny , its close to the origin here. Have you transformed it in the import settings correct with 0,001 in all directions ? This error comes everytime i import the file the first time, whatever file i import then works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Ingo, You did not specify to use the Transformation for x, y, z Scale = 0.001, but now we have tested with that too and still no errors. Does the problem persist for you after you reboot your computer? Is there any error message, or just no objects? And if you Import the first file and go to the Windows Menu, which window is marked as being active? (If the imported file is not active, does selecting it then show the objects?)

christian812 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Ingo… a bit off topic ! First > very nice and precise job > cheers What is the main Z version you're using for modeling 6.7 - 7 or 8 ? And the next question is: are Renders Maxwell or RenderZone (specially the B&O CD player) ? About PhotoShop, no questions > you're a master ! Tk's for your answers.

Thanks for your help, after rebooting it seems to work now. When i imported it before there was no error message, just the usual window without any objects, i even cant use select all, so it was definitly empty.

I use FormZ 8 now for modelling, and Modo for scenebuilding and rendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
