DXF import - object types and depth control

This was the app developping thread.

Easel DXF import testing

Hi everyone, I have been working on a DXF import app together with Inventables. I’m still working on presenting the SVG in the correct scale (size and unit system) but I could still use some more people testing the app and give some feedback if you encounter any problems or whether you like it/would use it in the future. Two things you should know: DXF files should be encoded in ANSI 1252 (standard) and file size should be smaller than 2 MB to achieve best results. We are however looking into …

@JelleVanRegen @Zach_Kaplan @JeffTalbot is there anything further that you can add or has changed since the app was originally developped? I couldn’t find a “tutorial” or “help” that contained exactly which DXF entities would imported and how… so I made this thread for me to refer to.

Having POINT be a drill item would be great.

I am an AutoCAD guy so being able to design my parts there and importing directly to Easel is great.

Thanks.
