Triangulation on Export
Posted: Thu Sep 07, 2017 7:14 pm
I do quite a bit of back and forth work between Sketchup and DataCAD.
I can create a "clean" model in sketchup...export it via DWG/DXF/SKP to DataCAD and all is perfect. Colors and geometry remain intact. Groups/components become symbols. Works perfect and as expected.
The return trip from DC to SKP is problematic. Model become grossly triangulated which is a huge problem for advanced rendering, material mapping and editing in SU.
Am I missing a magic button or something?
Inquiring minds want to know..
