How do I make a 2D drawing from a 3d drawing?
I have a 3d dwg file but I just need the top view in 2d. Can I make a 2d drawing from the top view and convert it to a block to use in another drawing? I work with bricscad lite.

Hello Johan,
If you make a viewport in you layout with scale 1:1 with a top view.
You can then export the layout to dwg.
Just right click the layout tab and select export.
With kind regards

My exported layout stays 3D,

Hmmm I assumed that this would work with manual viewports aswell.
Do you have acces to the baseview (_viewbase) command in Lite?
It works when you generate your views via that. -
I don't have acces to the command viewbase.

Hmmm that makes it difficult.
Is it just one file or a few files or something that you need to do often?
If its just a few file I can convert them for you. -
Thank you for your help, I installed a trail version of autocad yesterday where I have the flatshot command. It was 14 files that I had to convert. I can now use them in bricscad.
Howdy, Stranger!
