Hi, sorry if I'm late on this one.


I usually do more or less do the following:

  1. Duplicate FileA.idf
  2. Open FileA-duplicate.idf in SketchUp, accept the loss of information and make the changes.
  3. Upgrade FileA-duplicate.idf to 9.0
  4. Pass both files through the IDFFileEditor.exe to re-order the syntax.
  5. Open both files using a diff comparator (vimdiff, FileMerge, ...), and copy/replace everything related to both geometry and zones from FileA-duplicate.idf to FileA.idf.
