Block Explode - Autocad Mechanical 2012
(OP)
Hi All,
When I save a file from Inventor 2012 to an Autocad file it works just fine. I then go to open it, again it works just fine, however the file opens up as a block. Again there's nothing wrong with that.
Now when I go to use the Explode button nothing appears to happen. On checking the drawing, the explode command has in fact exploded the drawing, but it has also made two copies of the original block on top of the now exploded drawings whixh need to be erased before I can work on the drawing. Is this normal?

But - this approach has worked reliably for me, so far.
NOW - I'm aware that there's a way to do it "Right" in Inventor - output to a native AutoCAD 3D Solid model. What's that inventor command ?
Thanks -
Charley.
