The objects are inserted in the current layout (and using the default color of the layout). 

Exceptions:

  • objects received as 3D polylines.

  • see predefined send to

Layers

Sub-folders are created for each application, each file and each layer.

All objects received keep the color of the CAD object.

3D Polyline

If objects names are displayed, they are sent to as texts.

In case of an inspected polyline, inspection diagram and quotation texts are drawn using the gradient colors and not the CAD layout color.

Mesh

Only triangles are transferred. Colors, textures, or inspection values are lost.

The maximum number of triangles allowed for a mesh by AutoCAD is 16 million triangles but this maximum value can be lower depending on your system configuration.

Check Integrity treatment is automatically applied when sending from third application to 3DR: it may modify the mesh (in case of trouble, import a DWG/DXF instead to load it as is).
