DWG True View 07 vs/ 09

Happy Holidays Bloggers!!

Yesterday and today I have been tackling how to get our ABS 07 dwgs to view correctly in the DWG TrueView program.

Here is my conclusion....use the 2007 version of DWG TrueView and install the ADT 2007 object enabler and the ABS LIGHT 2007 object enabler and you will be fine. You have to do it in that order though. The regular ABS 2007 OE will not work. Make sure you reboot between installing object enablers.

For viewing any higher versions of AMEP dwgs go ahead and install and use the DWG TrueView 2009 version. You will need to install the A-Arch 2009 object enabler and the A-MEP LIGHT 2009 object enabler as well. Make sure you reboot between installing object enablers.

If you don't use the LIGHT versions of the ABS and A-MEP object enablers it will not work. For some reason the full ABS/A-MEP object enablers do not get the job done. Talk about some trial and error to do this!

Here are some links to help you in your endeavors:

Since Autodesk does not have the 2007 version of DWG TrueView you can go here and download it for free:

Specifically this one for the 07 ABS Light OE:

Good morning,

It's nasty out here...ice/sleet/snow...lovely time of year.
Hope you all dealing with this weather are being careful!
If you can, stay home and snuggle up with a puppy or two.

You can peruse this year, or past years' classes.

Enjoy the wealth of knowledge out there!!

Back from AU

Hey bloggers!

I made it back safe and sound from my trip to AU 08.
It was almost a 3hr delay on the flight back...which put me landing around 10pm...but other than that no major issues.

I had an awesome time. Attended classes for both Acad MEP and Revit MEP. Can't wait until they get the AU 08 link working for all the class downloads. That's supposed to happen sometime today. As soon as I see it, I will post a link here for you all.

Have a great day!
