SMS:CAD Data Workflow: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:10, 29 September 2015

To use CAD data in SMS, use the following steps:

1. Import CAD data files.
Verify the CAD file type is readable by SMS before importing it. SMS can import DXF and DWG files. Use the File \| Open... command to launch the Open dialog (or drag and drop) to import the CAD files. The data should load in layers into the Project Explorer.

2. Review and edit data.
Check data to see that it shows up in the Project Explorer and any feature objects are in the Graphics Window. Check data projection. Check data attributes.

3. Convert CAD data.
CAD → Map CAD Faces → 2D Scatter triangles CAD Points → 2D Scatter

4. Export to CAD Data.
Project data can be converted to CAD data. Right-click on an empty space in the Project Explorer and select Convert to CAD. Save the CAD data file. CAD data will be loaded into the Project Explorer
