How to Control Curve Interpretation when Importing 3D Solids from AutoCAD to SketchUp

Technical Problems SketchUp
1

When I import a 3D Solid with curves, for example curved roof or curved wall. The curve is broken up to segments in SketchUp, is there a way to control how many segments it is broken up into? Mainly to make it look smoother.

I can convert the Solid into Mesh before I import into SketchUp, however that’s an extra step, and if SketchUp can already interpret the curves into segments I would like to utilize the function to it’s full extent.

I don’t know of a way to control the segmentation. The object’s size might affect the results, so you could try to import using a larger or smaller import unit. If you try, report back, as I haven’t got now a suitable DWG file to experiment with.
