Ken -

I haven't found an easy way around this yet... I'll let you know if I find something.

Ken -

Correction - in my export from ACAD 2009 to SketchUp 7 its turning it into a 'polyface mesh'. To older versions of AutoCAD I was nearly certain it was converting to 3d faces.

There are some convoluted steps on the web to convert faces to solids... haven't tried them all yet. Next time I run into this I'll play around a bit. Having a converter would be great.

Hi Mark,

I have been experimenting with the Sketchup import "options" button and found that for example a drawing produced in AutoCAD using inches as the units of measurement must be imported into Sketchup using the same measurement option. If the import units are inadvertedntly set to feet then all dimensions will appear in Sketchup x 12. Setting the import dimensions to match those used in the originating problem should solve your problem.
