Thanks for telling me where the heart is. I'll look into it. (Who said computers were anti-human?) Suggestion: for those of us who are oriented to working with graphics but not familiar with the drafting side of modelling, why not put a sampler up on CIS? "by-block, by-layer, p-line skeleton or small spheres" doesn't mean a great deal to me at this point. If you could select a simple small model and zip all those versions up into one file, anyone could use the age-old "try'em/test'em" technique to find out what they need.

Hi Karl, Sure… I can take a finger off of each version of the DXF 3-D People models and zip them up. If you want, I'll email the zip to you so you can first see (1) what files your DXF translator likes, (2) which files render and shade best and (3) whether you would rather find the pivot point for rotating parts of the model by finding a small sphere or locating the end point of a p-line… and as you said, you can try 'em/test 'em, and know what flavor DXF 3-D People model would work best for you. –Frank
