hello, when i import dwg into sketchup, the building blocks have lots of lines, like diagonal lines on the surface. how did you delete them?

I cant download the vector map local file as a dwg, it is only available as a gml2 file. What do i do?

[@octavalent]

Hi there, if you are in digimap, when you select the data type there are usually some filetype options to select from. Though digimap have changed quite a lot since that was done. I will check later to see if that is still valid. Otherwise in digimap you will have to select the OS Mastermap > Topography option, this has loads of data and is available as a DWG file.
Regards
Paul

@@octavalent i imported the building heights dwg file into sketchup on its own without any other vector map files and it seemed to work fine, so actually i dont think theres an issue anymore. thanks a lot! this video was v helpful

Hi, when I import the cad file into Sketchup, it's a flat image, it doesn't pick up the contours or building height data. Do you know why this is?

[@octavalent]

Probably not the correct file. It was a long time ago but there should be several files in there. A flat image and the building heights one. Regards Paul
