Dwg Conversion Setup
Define the exact element conversions when a DWG file is imported to this software in the DWG Conversion Setup dialog box.
Setup
Defines the name of the setup file used in the conversion of the elements in a DWG file. Perform the conversion using an existing setup file or create a new one. When creating a new setup file, you must define a Vertex equivalent for each object type and property in the DWG file.
- Click the Create a new setup radiobutton, name the file and define the element conversions on the following dialog box tabs: Line Widths, Layers, Line Types, Text Styles and Dimensions. Finally, accept the conversion by clicking OK.
- Click the Activate an existing setup radiobutton, select the setup file from the list and accept the file import to this software by clicking OK.
Line Widths
Defines the line colors of a DWG file as Vertex line widths.
Layers
Defines corresponding Vertex layers for the layers in the DWG file.
Line Types
Defines corresponding Vertex line types for the line types in the DWG file. If the DWG file includes a lot of dashed lines, you can make the file conversion easier by enabling the fast drawing of dashed lines before you import the DWG file to Vertex.
Text Styles
Defines corresponding Vertex text styles for the text styles in the DWG file.
Dimensions
Defines corresponding Vertex dimensions for the dimensions in the DWG file.
