The File Link Settings dialog gives you control over the detailed aspects of
how geometry is translated from DWG or DXF files and interpreted in 3ds
Max. It also allows you to control whether only a portion of the 3ds Max
objects will be affected by subsequent reloading. The File Link Settings dialog
is displayed when Show Reload Options is turned on in the File Link Manager
dialog, or when editing a file link Preset.
The File Link Settings dialog lets you:
■ View and exclude layers in a linked file.
■ Control how geometry is converted.
■ Define how linked objects are converted to 3ds Max objects, referred to as
VIZBlocks.
The selections you make in the File Link Settings dialog can affect the amount
of memory used by 3ds Max to hold the linked data. Use the
Select Layers To
Include option
on page 6803 to reduce the amount of information added to
your scene.
