Inventor dwg idw

[Kaiser Soze]

When importing a Inventor dwg (not a AutoCAD dwg) I only get the title block and the dimensions. The part geometry is not imported. When importing a Inventor idw all the hidden arcs come in as faceted circles. not a true circle just a bunch of short straight lines. I don't want to save as a AutoCAD dwg because it breaks the link with the Inventor ipt solid model. We use Autodesk Vault and it is a pain to save into AutoCAD then into Vault. If a solid model is changed the Inventor idw or dwg will also change. If we have to save as an AutoCAD dwg then the link is broken. If anyone has a fix for this I will tell everyone you are the smartest person on earth and owe you a Beer.

Pick me! Pick me!

 

It sounds very much like something we've fixed in X7 Mu2 - which is really close to being officially released.

If you can send me one of the drawings I can check it out here. Or you can ask your reseller to check it out.
