I am getting really disappointed!
Conversion is sluggish (C2S takes hours on a 6MB file to export anything up to 20 layers for a total of less than 1000 shapes) and what's worse it doesn't work! After waiting all that time I looked at the shapes with qgis and it shows only a couple of black lines!

I have already upgraded to the latest version found on your website, but without success.

Please fix C2S, this is the second SHOWSTOPPER problem I encounter in a row!

Hi Umberto,

Sorry that you are having a frustrating time.

If you are able to temporarily make the dwg available and let us know the settings that you are using for the translation, we will do tests to analyse the problem.

As a general tip for large files, if any translation is taking longer than several minutes, probably something has gone wrong, and it is advisable to abort the translation. Try working with a smaller subset of the data to get a successful translation before proceeding to larger data sets.

In a near future software update we will put a % completed progress bar to give a better indication as to the status of the translation.


best regards,
Software Support

After all I was able to export the data by separating layers into smaller subsets with mblock command.
Unfortunately this cumbersome for large drawings, but at least it works.
