Tried importing a simple outline in .dxf (exported from Solidquirks). Got errors ‘branching path’ and ‘open path’, so I created ultra-simple basic outline of the non-rectangular board, (also contains a large cutout with filleted corners). This imported without error, but won’t display reliably, unless at high zoom levels?? At low zoom, arcs not displayed UNLESS cursor touches their (phantom) location, so I can’t really proceed to locate components. Images attached.

Hi Zak: No reply yet, The dxf may not be squeaky clean, (from Solidworks), but there is definitely something strange about the Upverter interpretation and presentation.
We definitely don’t handle closed paths, so depending on your dxf if its a series of shapes, or more than one path, or an open path then that may explain why its failing. Regardless I’ll check support and make sure you get a proper answer as soon as possible.
Has this issue been resolved? I’m not able to import DXFs myself.
