View 3D Models in CAD File?

I was trying to load a 3D CAD model with GlobalMapper v17. The file is in .DWG format. When open with Microstation or AutoCAD, I can see correct model of a house. When loaded with GM, I can only see some wireframes / labels and the house is totally missing. I'm wondering if GlobalMapper support 3D CAD Models. I know GM has the capacity of viewing 3D models since I have worked with 3DS files before. The dwg file and screenshots are attached. Thanks.
