The DWG Translator engine is capable to create ArchiCAD GDL objects from the DWG blocks. This is very useful, but if you are planning to replace these objects with original GDL Library Parts, it can result bad object positions. This is because ArchiCAD doesn't handle the original DWG insertation point, so the objects will be in good position only if the insertation point of the DWG block was in the 0,0,0 location in the DWG file. We are now working on the solution to reserve complete replace functionality.
