CAD Blocks from version 9.0
I recently updated to the X3 version. I downloaded the premier content library and there seems to be less CAD blocks than my old 9.0 version. Example: In 9.0 the "Deck attached to wood" detail showed the side view of a whole deck including joist, rail, beam, post, footing, and attchement to house. In the X3 premium content it only shows the attachement to house. Am I missing something? Is it possible to transfer the cad drawing from my 9.0 version to my new version? I had many saved details in "My CAD Blocks" that fit my needs and I hate to have to start all over again.

You can try exporting the 9.0 details as a .dwg and them import them into X3.

if the cad drawings are .ALB files they can be imported into X3 library directly

In my opinion( for what its worth) if you want things to go smooth, upgrade more often, you'll have less problems. Your old details should import into X3 OK. A must, if this is your business.
