ReMark Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 No, I just got annoyed that's all. Don't worry, I recover quickly. According to one source users of 2018 can save drawings back to the 2013 version. I have not confirmed that for myself as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halam Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) So you don't understand the point, get annoyed. I don't mind. So no conversion problems then , all is okidoki and fine. "The DWG format has been updated to provide improvements in the efficiency of open and save operations, especially for drawings that contain many annotative objects and viewports. Additionally, 3D solid and surface creation is now using the newest geometric modeler which has improved security and stability." But how *EXACTLY* do AutoCAD users benefit using the file format? straight forward *Examples please! * .. To help me from the feeling this format was just brought in for marketing reasons working through verticals, help me persue me to use DWG 2018 fileformat if you can..

halam Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Since this discussion wasn't going anywhere normal or insight i was adviced by AutodeskHelp to post it on Autodesk forum Note that there is DWG compatibility and AEC DWG compatibility. https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/dwg-version-2018-compability-aec-objects/td-p/6969946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
