I have a 3d generator in wich i have draped (and themed ) features on a mesh surface.

 

These look great in inspector and 3dpdf. Smooth, color and everything.

 

I write the set to a autocad file.

 

 

This because i want to set a persepctive and generate a poster. (for a promotional set of large high quality prints).

 

 

When i open the file in autocad it shows my draped surface only by its boundaries as a 3d polyline.

 

 

Anyone know how i keep my nice surfaces?

 

 

I dont want to smooth the mesh by resampling or anything, that would distort reality. (i have some smoothing due to tolerance setting in surfacebuilder, by 10cm)

 

The mesh looks slightly crappy in autocad, and there is max limit to smoothing those in autocad wich also distorts reality.

 

 

Atm im trying to export the drapes as planar and use the autocad drape function to drpae it on the Dem export. Not succesfull yet though..

 

 

 

Or is it somehow possible to set a perspectiveview prior to outputting the files? So i could directly generate a jpg or png? Because my problem is that it is always output with persoective on the xy-plane. Thats why i need to output it to a 3d program. (or do i?)

 

 

Thanks for any advise tips or otherwise wise insights..
