Gawdzira Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Imported ACAD drawings are simply CAD lines in Chief. They will no longer have wall information. Only 2d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuttery Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Chief does have a "CAD to Walls" tool but very few use it or have had luck in using it most Chiefers import the CAD file, scale it, then trace over it with Chief's walls and add doors and windows and then proceed from there to finish the plan Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
