How to export Shapefile to CAD (DXF) and have the correct elevation value?
Whenever i export the contour shapefile and it turns out to have zero elevation level. Can someone show me how to get the correct elevation.
Thanks in advance,
Torika
is it a 3D shapefile (polylinez) or a 2D one with Z-values in a field
Its in 2D
use the "ADD CAD fields" tool before the "Export to CAD".
Hi Torika Waqa
If you are sure with Z-Value in your shape file , then just to set an Environment setting before export to CAD , go to Environments Settings - Z Values - Output has Z values - click Enabled.
press OK -OK ,
You will definitely get the elevation in CAD.
Use the Add CAD fields then populate the appropriate field before exporting to CAD
