Certain DXF/DWG and DWF items have no equivalent in a Vectorworks file and cannot be imported. A few other objects theoretically could be imported, but the Vectorworks program does not currently support them.
● Named views
● Textures
● Lights
● rtext
● SHX fonts
● OLE objects
● User coordinate systems (UCS)
● Custom line styles and shape files
● DXF groups (named selection sets, not the same as Vectorworks groups)
● Certain objects from industry-specific variations of AutoCAD, if those objects do not have proxy graphics saved in the file. AEC objects that were created with AutoCAD Architecture can be imported as groups of 2D or 3D objects, depending on how you import; for example, a door imported from a DWG file with a 3D view is converted to a group of 3D mesh objects in a Vectorworks file.
