Is there any method to fill a shell? (mesh or surface)

I trying to migrate some files created from sketchup imported to dwg, but with sketchup always I have problems.

Is there any method to fill (like to fill a glass with water) to convert mesh or surface or any 2D objects to solids?

There are various methods, depending on the source geometry, and in some cases you may need to take intermediary steps to achieve. DMSTITCH would be one option to investigate.

Also SOLIDIFY does a great job with Meshes.

But Sketchup is a special case with its double Faces for 2-sided texturing. At one point in the past I decided to no more accept any projects based on Sketchup data.

I have not yet seen any recent DWG Exports from Sketchup though.

That explains a lot! Thanks.
