Re: Try to Import DXF

The dxf contains Blocks in Blocks in Blocks in.....
That's currently not supported by dxf2elmt, but developer is working on it!
Use CAD-Software, to "explode" all blocks.
Then dxf2elmt produces beautiful elements!

Blocks are currently supported. The way I wrote it I would have thought nested blocks would be supported, but I have not actually tested that yet.

I'll have to do some testing with your file and see why it's not working.

If it is due to nested blocks, what plc-user suggested: opening it in some CAD software and doing an explode on the blocks should work as a temporary solution until I can update the software.

So I did a quick look, I never quite finished the logic for nested blocks, so that is the problem here. I'll add it to the to do list. Thank you.

Re: Try to Import DXF

Hi,

I exploded (decompressed) a (XP) DXF file 3 times when I realized there was nothing left to unpack. I converted it to elmt format and enlarged it 2x. No problem. I use Qcad for unpacking.

At least we don't need to discuss font sizes with this file: All texts are “painted” into the drawing by lines and polygons... nomicons/wink
