Proxy Graphics for Import

[NateBoettcher 0]

Hello, I am new to using Home Designer.  I am working with an architect and in order to cut down on some of their billable time, I am doing the measuring of an existing home for a renovation project.  I sent a DWG file to the architect, when he tries to import it, it's stating "proxy graphics needs to be set to 1." I am trying to find out what program he is importing too, but thought I might reach out to the forum to get a quick resolution.

thanks,

NB

I work with AutoCAD users all the time and for many years using Chief Architect (NOT Home Designer).

 

Since Home Designer 2020 is the First version to offer a full, complete export to AutoCAD (.dwg), I am assuming that you have an HD 2020 version, yes?

 

In 25 years of successful use of this software, I have never heard of your particular error message, so I recommend that you contact Chief Architect Tech Support for advice as to what that means and what you can do about it.

Thank you!  You are correct it's 2020. Do they monitor forums or would I need to resubmit?
