Problem
Is there a true integration for Civil 3D objects in StormCAD V8 or is it just that it can run in AutoCAD?Problem number:31617
Solution
Civil3d integration works just like plain vanilla AutoCAD integration. Pipe networks can be utilized by import/export:1.Take a model that entered with plain Civil 3D, export the xml, and import it into StormCAD.The hydraulic design has to be done in standalone StormCAD. So we import the xml file into StormCAD. If we need this data to be available in the source xml file or in plain Civil 3D we have to do step 2.2.Take the StormCAD model, export the xml, and then import it into plain Civil 3D.The changes we make in the xml file after importing it into StormCAD are not going to be there in the source xml file. We need to export the xml and then import it back into Civil3D. This is because Civil3D and StormCAD work on different databases.
