| Why AutoCAD complicated 3D objetcs get distorted or are missing parts when imported to sketchup? | collagearte | 8/3/12 6:51 AM | SketchUp Version:8 When I imported a 3D (very curvy) fountain that I made in AutoCAD, it came out with missing parts of the geometry thus rendering it impossible to apply any materials. Why is that? Anyone knows a way around it? I'm new to using Sk |
