Version set to 2012 and set to Automatic or Shaded, bringing in a Plant 3D 2011 model is viewed normally.

Same settings loading a Plant 3d 2012 model the pipe comes in shaded, equipment wireframe, misc components wireframe and elbows seem to be missing.

Has anyone else come across this issue?

That doesn't sound good. Have you tried setting the setting back to 2011 or 2010 and load it just to see what you get?

Sounds like you need the Plant 3D 2012 object enabler for Navisworks. No expected date for release, but should be out very soon. I'm waiting for these as well. I have a webinar coming up next week for P3D 2012 and Navisworks. :(

I had the same thing. I exported the model to AutoCAD and was able to generate a solid nwd from there

I got the same thing Peter, worked fine if I export the model to AutoCAD and then open that file.

Chad - that doesn't work either

You probably knew this but you need to restart Navisworks after changing the loader version settings.

I just loaded the Plant 3D 2012 object enablers. Went back into my test project and created a general arrangement drawing. Appended that into a new Navisworks file and it seems to display just fine now.
