I saw the symbol editor also and it doesn't import DWG or DFX files from outside the program either. Thanks, Greg

Greg sent me some symbols he was not able to import with the Symbol editor. I analyzed them and I found the problem: the grid in Autocad. So, turn off the grid in Autocad (Command: grid => off) and save the file without the grid. Then, import it with the symbol editor. Hope this helps, Patricia

This feature allows you to import your floorplan, and convert each line in a wall, roof, topography, etc. You can add floors, windows, doors, furniture, ceilings and get a 3D model, so you can change materials, colors, decorate and landscape your project Let us know if you need additional help Patricia

Rank: Newbie Joined: 3/1/2004(UTC) Posts: 18		When I use the animator to make a short clip, in one particular drawing, the grass dissappears when it is previewed. When i use the mouse to walk around the grass comes back. When I stop it goes again. This is in only one drawing. Im have tried changing the cutaway slider and the elevations with no success. Any help would be appreciated. Charles
