Dear all, I got a CD which contains several DWG (DWG R2010) files from my friend. One of them is the main file and the other files should be embedded in the main file. When I opened this file with Autodesk DWG TrueView 2016, the main file and embedded parts can be clearly displayed on the screen. However, if I opened the main file with QCAD, all the embedded parts would be skipped. Would anyone like to tell me what I should do? Thank you very much.
Operating System: Windows 7 SP1 Pro. (64-bit) or Linux Mint 17.1 KDE (32-bit)
QCAD: Ver. 3.9.4.0
Another DWG embedded in the current DWG

Re: Another DWG embedded in the current DWG
This drawing likely uses XRefs to reference the external drawings. XRefs are currently not supported by QCAD.
Re: Another DWG embedded in the current DWG
Will this feature be supported in the near future?
Re: Another DWG embedded in the current DWG
That depends on various factors such as my personal work load, interest by users in this feature, votes in the task tracker:

XRefs are also a relatively complex feature, so 'near future' is unlikely.
