PaulinColorado Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 CA X8 (these are screen shots): When I import DWG files from my engineer (who is using Revit), (see image of CAD block); or from the CA Simpson Hanger manufacture catalog as a CAD Block, (image of joist hanger), into my CAD details; I get multiple lines, vert. Horz. in what appears to be both the holes in the hangers and fasteners. How do I prevent this from happening? When I delete the hanger from the CAD detail, all lines go away so I know it's part of that detail. I cannot "explode" the CAD detail to isolate the Active Layer Display options...thanks. Only tedious fix I've found is to delete all hangers and fasteners and redraw them with CAD, not a good option as my plan has 36 CAD details.

Solution glennw Posted May 6, 2016 Solution Share Posted May 6, 2016 They look like circle or arc centers to me. Try toggling off Arc Centers and Ends - although it may not work for an imported cad block. If it doesn't work, you may have to edit the original cad work in the cad block.
