Hi there, I attempted to import a Vectoworks file (dwg) however Sketchup doesn’t acknowledge it. How am i able to do?
What model DWG was the file?
The file was not saved as native vectorworks however exported as a .dwg? What does Sketchup say if you attempt to import? If the .dwg model is just too new as steered above get the sender to resend in an older model or convert it your self.
It’s from Vectorworkds2019. Really it opens it however the file is unusual, i can’t work on it, like pushing/pulling.
There are almost definitely no surfaces within the space you are attempting to push/pull, simply edges. Are you able to embrace the Sketchup file right here so we are able to have a look? It one of the simplest ways to determine what’s taking place, it’s the eighth icon throughout the highest.
… and maybe imports are encapsulated inside a part occasion ?
You might must double click on it to be able to do any edits.

It’s imported as a part, so it’s essential both explode it, or double-click the occasion to enter it’s modifying context.

As Riley stated, there aren’t any faces for the partitions to drag up. You could draw an edge over one edge in a wall so SketchUp will create the face.
I’ve tried practically each choice for importing a VW mannequin into SketchUp, and just lately discovered software program that does a superb job. ‘Transmutr’ is a standalone software (not a plugin for SU.) See under for a comparability of varied VW export/SU import approaches. Lots of them fail to incorporate the road work, so I’ve proven the ends in each SU ‘Default Type’ and ‘Hidden Line’ for instance. I really feel like Transmutr is the best way to go, at the least at current.
Thanks for the trial you performed. Definitely saved me repeating the work.
