Sets the destination file options when you export an Autodesk Inventor drawing as an AutoCAD Drawings (.dwg) file.
Autodesk Inventor files saved in Autodesk Inventor Drawing (*.dwg) format can be opened directly in AutoCAD where you can view, plot, and measure the Autodesk Inventor data. Autodesk Inventor drawing views remain linked to the parts and assemblies from which the views are created. However, this drawing data is not fully editable in AutoCAD. If you require a drawing that is 100% editable in AutoCAD, then export the file.
Access: |
In the Save AsSave Copy As dialog box, select AutoCAD Drawing (.dwg) as the file type. Click Options. Click Next in each dialog box to open the subsequent dialog box. |
Source Data |
Selects one or more sheets for export |
All Sheets exports all sheets in the current IDW file. Clear the All Sheets check box to select each individual sheet you want to export. A sheet icon is displayed next to the name of the sheet to indicate the status. When views are out of date or links are missing, a different icon appears. This status is an indicator only and does not prohibit export. |
|
Model Geometry Only |
Controls the data that is written to the DWG file. By default, the check box is not selected, which indicates all data is exported to the DWG file. Select the check box to export only Model, Base, and Projected view data. |
Export Options |
Data Scaling specifies scaling and destination for exported data. Select an option from the list. See the description in the message area. |
Best Visual Fidelity |
Select this option to achieve the best visual results for exported objects. |
Closest AutoCAD Mapping |
Select this option to achieve the closest AutoCAD representation for exported objects. |
Mapping Options |
Opens the Mapping Options dialog box to allow advanced mapping control. You can map the line types to AutoCAD line types, line styles to layers in the destination file, and specify AutoCAD Dimension associativity. |
AutoCAD Template File |
Specifies a .dwg or .dwt file is used as a template in creating the AutoCAD file. Layer properties of the template files are maintained when mapping options for layers may differ. |
Save Configuration File |
Saves the settings in the wizard dialog boxes to a configuration file that you can use to set options when exporting other Autodesk Inventor drawings. Specify the location of the configuration file in the Save as dialog box. |
