sjj 17 Posted May 28, 2019 Hi, I'm trying to export a cabinet model to Sketchup for panel layout purposes, so i'm exporting with the following options in the image. The panel looks fine in FormZ but when imported into Sketchup the amount of segments in the curve is massively reduced and therefore unusable? Does anyone know a way to negate/fix this? Cheers SJJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZTEK 26 Posted May 28, 2019 Try picking on Export Facetted Objects As ACIS Objects and see how Sketchup do his job importing or, before export, do the conversion to facetted in formZ directly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snow 97 Posted May 28, 2019 change "smooth" to facetted in the drop down and also change the radial button from "parametric" to "facetted" sketchup doesn't play well with smooth geometry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjj 17 Posted May 30, 2019 Cheers guys but the other issue it that if i export as facetted the assembly comes thru as one component in sketchup. I did a bit of digging and it seems sketchup imports with a limited amount of curve segment steps, so the solution is to subdivide the curves by adding points to the original vectors. On import to Sketchup you get clean curves and geometry and each part is it's own component. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
