Just checking first - did you actually select any geometry when you tried to export the STL file? Seeing the *Cancel* at the select command in your snapshot makes it seem as if you didn't actually complete the selection (thanks, Cad64).

 

If you'd like to post a file, I believe the size limit is 1 MB, but I haven't had to post one myself. Someone else may want to chime in here, but I believe that you'll need use the "Go Advanced" link at the bottom right of the reply area to be able to post a file. Once there, you can use the paperclip link to attach a DWG.

You can upload the file to dropbox (free account sign up) and then post the link to the file here, but it certainly looks like you don't have 3D solids in your drawing.

Sorry, I have my own deadlines today. Just look on YouTube for Autocad 3D tutorials.

Why not just export to a STL file from Global Mapper? Looks like that's an option under their Export -> 3D Formats...

 

trust me the stl from GM does not work correctly.. hence why i had to move to autocad...can u show me hwo to convert polylines to 3D solids?

You can extrude multiple closed polylines at the same time, but you will have to adjust the height for each building manually, 1 by 1.
