[TRNSYS-users] Importing a dwg -drawing to SketchUp??

[ITF - Adrien JEZEQUEL]

Dear Santeri

Version 7 of Google Sketchup allow you to import dwg files.
Since version 8 free version, this is not allowed anymore. You have to 
buy professional one to do that.
2 simple way to succeed :

  * download version 7 of google sketchup
  * create a jpg picture from your dwg plans (print screen maybe
    sufficient) and import that in your sketchup model. Then, adjsut the
    scale with sketchup tools to obtain correct dimension

Best regards
