Flattening Autocad Microstation cad files

1. Free - online http://www.convertpdftoautocad.com/

2. Back to Cad Dwg to PDF http://www.backtocad.com/ - Use Overkill - AutoCAD command removes small and overlapping lines.

3. Bentley Flattener - does not do meshes

4. Flatshot - AutoCAD command that does solids

5. Flatten - AutoCAD command

6. -exporttoautocad - proxy AEC objects exploded into basic AutoCAD objects (solids)

7. MicroStation - Plot to Hidden line 2d. Only works on plan views. Open the model with MicroStation. Set your view display depth. Turn hidden lines on if needed. Use File > Export > Visible Edges… to create a 2D .DGN file. Open the 2D .DGN file with MicroStation and use File > Export > DGN, DWG, DXF… to create the .DWG file. Use the .DWG file to add drawing border, annotation, etc

  • SOLVIEW automates the creation of floating viewports and orthogonal views of your model. SOLVIEW also creates a special layer for dimensioning. For a view that you have named “front,” look for a layer called front-dim. You can use these layers to create dimensions in paper space.
  • SOLDRAW works with the views created by SOLVIEW and creates 2D profiles, including hatching for sections.
  • SOLPROF requires that you create your own floating viewports and that you start on a layout in model space. This command then creates profiles. You can create hidden views by choosing Yes at the “Display hidden profile lines on separate layer?” prompt and then freezing or turning off the layers that represent hidden lines.

    AutoCad Not enough free RAM for HIDE--some lines will be hidden incorrectly

    Error: "Not enough free RAM for HIDE--some lines will be hidden incorrectly" - TS22824497



    When using the HIDE command in AutoCAD with the visual style set to 2D Wireframe, the following message is displayed on the command line:   

    Not enough free RAM for HIDE--some lines will be hidden incorrectly.  

    Solution:

    To work around the error:
    1. With nothing selected, open the AutoCAD Properties window.
    2. Change the Visual Style to any value other than 2D Wireframe. Try wireframe.
    You should now be able to run HIDE successfully.
