HD Pro - Exporting to DXF files

[David J. Potter]

I never use the "All Floors" command because "ALL FLOORS" get exported one on top of the other in a jumble of lines that are (unlike an AutoCAD .dwg file) on the same named layer when exported and imported into another application.

What I do use is the "Export Current View" command which exports a view just as you see it on screen as 2D lines which when imported into another application make it easier to tell one floor from another instead of a chaos of lines stacked on top of each other.

It may be that the application you are trying to import into does not support the latest version of .dxf files as to why you got no results. I export files regularly for sharing with Engineers and Architects who use AutoCAD with no problems at all. If you keep getting no results please contact Chief Architect Inc Tech Support for help.
