Topic: Problems with import

Hi!

When i try to go from dxf to elmt, i get a file that is only 0 or 1 kb big. The file i cant open in the element editor later. I have tried on 2 windows 10 computers. I also tried the dxftoqet alternative and got a db3 file. What can i do with the db3 file after i got it on the computer.

Best regards Loke Lundberg

Hi,
you could send your DXF?

Re: Problems with import

Unfortunatly i cant send the files ive tested with. Ive tried to go from DWG to DXF -> DXF to QET and DXF to QET.  I have tested many versions of your DXFtoQET converter. I have tested multiple dxf formats. I also tested to go from QET to DXF and then DXF to QET.  I also tested this file "ggmsb602test10.dxf" someone else here had problems with the same result. The elmnt file was 0-1 kb. My work now includes many edits of DWG files.

Best regards Loke

Question:
How can we help if we don't know what's going wrong? No Sample-Files, no screenshots ... nothing!
It's not helpful for potential helpers if someone else writes that he/she has the same problem!

So:
What is going wrong and where?

Maybe this post can help:

Re: Problems with import

Do you remember to use the XP command for the dwg image, (unpack, explode) before saving to dxf format. It takes that command up to twice, it depends on the desired level for the dxf image. I personally use Qcad and nanocad programs, the free versions are fine. I save dxf images in 2013 format.
