Which DWG versions are supported?

Open robodyne-robotics opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I noticed that some DWG files cannot be read since I get "open name_file.dwg failed". What are the suggested DWG versions that is better to use? Thank you!

P.S. For example, I cannot read this DWG file. sample.zip

Hello! Now only R15 (AutoCAD R2000) is supported.

Hi @sandyre the AutoCAD R2000 version corresponds to AutoCAD 2000 only? So this lib will only support reading DWG files which where made in AutoCAD 2000?

Hey, I am not sure to be honest. Probably older versions of AutoCAD can produce R15 (R2000) version DWG (if they have some backward-compatibility).
