    Hy Guys..I had to convert some slddrw to dwg for our other CAD guy today and
    all he got was the dimensions. I then tried to give him the DXF and the same
    thing. Just dimensions. So I tried to open it up in the SXW DWG Editor and
    all I got was dimensions. This is scarin the crap outa me. WHat happened??
    Thanks as always...Jake Barron

    I took an old print and cleaned it out and used it as my new template. It
    seems to work fine now. I have had a problem a few times in the last couple
    of years with Templates becoming corrupt. Dont know why. Well, at least it
    works for tonight, :) Jake Barron

    I dont recall if it was geometry or dimensions that was once "lost" i
    dwg. But anyway the reason was that the SW color was not entirely
    black but so close that you would not see it in SW. In Acad (with
    black background) the entity was invisible. Only BLACK will translate
    to contrast color. A color-setup in SW resolved the problem.
