Adobe Acrobat 3D and Autocad 2008 issues

Post by gasworks »

I've been trying to find information regarding Space Explorer issues in Acrobat 3D with autocad 08 imported content.

For nearly every other file type (rhino, inventor, solidworks), Acrobat 3D works as advertised. BUT... for some reason when I import DWG or DWF into Acrobat 3D, SE get's hung up on zooming the magnification of the page, not the model space. Changing the SE focus from page magnification to 3D model is very difficult and extremely inconsistent. Is this a known issue or has anyone else had the same difficulty?

Example file to troubleshoot

Adobe has this file on their Acrobat 3D PDF sample files repository. Demonstrates the issue at hand.

rstadie,
I seet that 3Dconnexsion is working on this issue (#4668), from a posting several weeks ago.

Has there been any progress? Or, is there any estimate as to when this might be resolved?

Our effective use of our Space Explorers is heavily dependent on getting it working reliably within the "model space" of DWG files loaded into Acrobat 3D.

Thanks!
Dace
