Auto Cad to QCad

Post by kohlerpwns » Thu Mar 27, 2014 9:05 pm

Hi all,

Currently working on a project and have run into an embarrassing issue.

The designer is sending a DWG that has 12-15 plates, however I can only see the first one in Q-Cad.

He showed me his file which has 15 tabs he can click through to view each drawing. I do not see anything nor having searched through the program have I come across a view list or tab list to see the additional pages.

Would anyone be able to help me understand if it is:

A) A Compatibility issue.
B) A User error issue.
C) A view selection issue.

Any thoughts are appreciated!

Josh

The drawing is likely using paper spaces which is not currently supported by QCAD.
If you can attach or e-mail the drawing file, I can give you more detailed information.

Thanks. I've downloaded the file but removed the attachment from your post since you wish to keep it confidential and this is a public forum.
