when i open the choices pane in sketchup to export as a dxf file, it exhibits that my object measurement is 30 inches by 17 inches. However the precise measurement of the half is 6 inches by roughly 7 inches. Why is SU displaying the incorrect dims?
second, if anybody has lightburn, when i import the dxf file, its tremendous small and scaling doesn’t work as a result of it imports it with very odd numbers of 0.439 by 0.29 inches.
thanks

right here it’s:) work space is ready for inches on this one since it’s a fundamental form to be laser minimize
Very first thing I see once I open your file is that the Digicam is ready to Perspective. It is advisable to set it to Parallel Projection and the usual High view. Additionally use Zoom Extents to get the mannequin to fill the mannequin house as a lot as doable. It’ll additionally assist in the event you modify the mannequin window to suit extra carefully with the mannequin. Strive that and see what you get.
Why aren’t you utilizing LO?

i had it set to parallel projection, i switched it again earlier than saving so i wouldnt overlook when shifting in 3d.
Utilizing zoom extents, and high view with projection, it nonetheless imports extraordinarily small and SU exhibits very massive dims within the choices
Most likely the import models.
That is what I see.
odd, mine exhibits the 30 x 17 nonetheless. i even tried all the discharge model within the drop down haha
You’re lacking one thing. Return by means of the directions I gave you and be sure to’ve finished the whole lot.

As I wrote, it should be the incorrect import models set in Lightburn. I don’t use that so I can’t information you on that finish.

as for SU, it nonetheless offers very massive dims within the export choices. It looks as if its grabbing the digital camera view somewhat than the precise measurement of the article. IE, the width is 30ish which might match from the left toolbox to the fitting pane window. SO its grabbing digital camera house somewhat than simply the article dims.
Did you resize the SketchUp window like I informed you to do?
These dimensions on the left are for your complete mannequin window. That has nothing to do with the size of the geometry.
