When exporting a ram connection detail into dxf format it is exported as a 3D model when I open it in Autocad. I'm trying to import this file into Revit and edit it from there, but it won't let me explode it because the file is in 3D. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks
The dxf file is a 2D file exported from RAM Connection. When you open it in AutoCAD you need to do any editing that is required and then import it into Revit. Do not explode it in Revit, it becomes unusable. Also when you import it don't import the file into the 3d model. Import it into a sheet.

See below. The first image is what I see when I open the dxf file in AutoCAD. The second image is what I see when I rotate the file in AutoCAD, it appears to be 3D and this is what is causing the problem.
You are right. I never realized they were 3D. I still don't understand why you cannot edit it in AutoCAD and insert it into a Revit sheet.
