You could export from your other application as a SKP, or DAE file Or you may find a 3rd party DXF importer plugin that would work with SketchUp Make.

I tried several times to correct it, but the exported DXF keeps coming out looking like it does. Its available in over 30 languages with cross-platform support for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Beginning with SketchUp version 8, DWG and DXF import / export is a SketchUp Pro only feature. My assumption is that the True Tangent extension somehow does not properly place the tangents on the edges of the circles. This I attribute to the segments still being present in the file.īTW, I created the shape by drawing circles and finding their common tangents using the ‘common tangents’ function of the ‘True Tangents’ extension for Sketchup. When I try to import the DXF into another CAD application where I need to process it, it says the shape is not closed. The free version of Sketchup has limited file export options and many CAM programs. There are many techniques to use while importing. This is a plugin script for Googles free 3D design program Sketchup. Once installed the plugin in works great and you can import your AutoCAD. This option was not available for the free version until September of 2009. Some of the arcs are exported to the DXF as a proper arc, but others still show the segments in Layout. With demand for this being high Google has created a plugin to bring in AutoCAD dwg files into SketchUp. I have a model with 4 arcs (or really 8, as the problem sometimes appears over half of these arcs).
Not perfect, but the description says it handles ‘most’ DXF entity types. To export your model, follow these steps: In SketchUp Pro. With demand for this being high Google has created a plugin to bring in AutoCAD dwg files into SketchUp. Jim Foltz has a DXF importer in the Sketchucation Plugin store. I followed the instructions in the Skill Builder video (choosing 3D model export, not 2D), but did not end up with the result shown. When you export a SketchUp model as a 3D CAD file, you can select what entities are exported. Thanks for this incredibly useful explanation, my challenge was the same as the OP’s.
