    butelja, I've just been thru this whole process you went thru. We submitted a proposal on upgrading to SWX from Autocad. I had no problems w/ the 30day trial copy. I did have to sit thru a hands on demo before I received the copy. I didn't have a problem w/ this aspect. It was helpful to...

    SWX , Win2KPro, & P4 graphic card recommendations

    I've been looking over the SWX web site on Vid cards. I've made a list before this post of possible cards from the SWX site and gave to my MIS dept. I felt if people have had this issue already they would have a good idea on cards they've used. We didn't even want to look @ the pass W/L. If...

    We stumbled into a problem w/ upgrading our computer boxes to P4 1.5v AGP slots. We were previously using Oxygen VX1 cards and now we are forced to change our graphics cards. What if any recommendations does anyone have out there for a midrange 3D card that will work well w/ SWX 2001 plus...

    getting rid of "Z" values

    If you have the express tools for Autocad there is a command within the express tools called flatten. This is normally used for converting a 3D drawing into a 2D drawing but it also works for removing the Z points of a drawings. Dean Weldy

    .DWF file conversion to an Autocad openable format

    Jef, Saving from Whip will not work w/ the new 2002 ver of Autocad. The new DWF ver isn't supported by Whip nor the old Voloview. The newer Voloview doesn't have a copy to clipboard nor the saveas function.
