Impossible to import a dxf into my design

Hi All,

If you ever encounter these issues, please feel free to contact us on our support channel, we are happy to find the possible causes.

When importing DXF or DWG files, please remember the following:

  • Only 2D content can be imported as DWG/DXF format
  • There are some drafting elements that are not supported. These are hatches, annotations, planar faces, blocks, and points.
  • Layers are also not supported, all sketch elements from the imported layers will be imported into one sketch group.
  • Parasolid only scans 1 cubic km around the origin of the coordinate system. If the content is placed farther away, the file will be imported as an empty workspace. This happens a lot with architectural models and blueprints.

If the file contains many of these unsupported elements, it may take some time to filter out them and show the remaining elements.
