That is a different cat to skin.The OP probably needs to draw in model space full size is preferred if the
If I remember it right (I used to be good in this autoCRAP junk, just
don't tell anyone)
If by block you mean big square around the drawing layout, it must be
viewport (no, you can't explode it)
Work with model view this way your scale should be correct unless there
was some real aCAD genius and draw that thing scaled (oh I have seen
things like that) then when you go back to layout the changes should show

The part as you call it is in fact a plant layout - and yes I can
rotate it - but it's only a 2D drawing (there are no 3D features) just
lines, curves, annotations and blocks.
My client needs to add his tuppence worth (pipe routings) so he can
manufacture then install them.

In model view is the part 3D? see if u can rotate it
Depending on what do u need to correct in this file you may ask for a
different format

Hi,
I have just got some ACAD DWG files from a client that i need to
import & edit.
The problem I am having is exploding the blocks.
I have tried importing directly into SWX 2007 - this was not
successful as a large number of entities would not import.
I have tried opening with DWG editor 2008 and the file imports without
any issues however, it shows 2 tabs - model and layout1, I can explode
the blocks in the model view but not in the layout view?
The consequence is that i cannot pick single entities in the layout to
edit.
Any Ideas welcome!
Thanks,
Kev
original drawing was done that way, or scaled if it was scaled. People do
some weird stuff when they draw in AutoCAD. My preference is to draw full
scale and setup the plotscale in paperspace. The inference is that the
drawing actually has some blocks in it.
