Is there any way to bring a bitmap file into MCX

[terry5357]

we got a bitmap file that we are trying to bring and create geometry over it

There is a raster to vector translator available for MCX. I think it comes with MCX art. Not sure about price.

 

If its a one time deal you may be able to get your reseller to do it, or maybe someone here with art.

If you still v9 loaded you dont need art. It converts, just use Rast2vec from converters menu.

Anything V9 is getting a bit hazy, but I think it's an add-on. The option might be there but I think it'll ask you for an authorization code if you try to run it but haven't paid for it. But like I said, it's been a while.

I have V9 mr0304 and it asks for a access code to use it.

 

Adobe illustrator will save as dwg's also. that's how I get raster images into MCX. If the bitmap is a simple image its pretty quick and easy. If the image has a lot of shading it can take a while.

Should be included for free in X2. Check it out.

Email it to me and ill convert it for you.

 

First times free

Colin, do you mean the ras2vec chook in X2?

 

When i try to use the chook it asks for an access code, then when you close it says contact your dealer for license.

[Hardmill]

Pretty sure its not a freebie
