IMPORT DXF FILE TO CIRCUIT STUDIO V1.1

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hi,

I want to import a DXF file to circuit studio v1.1. I tried it but it doesn't work. In the new version 1.1 is supposed it is possible to import DXF files. So I did the following:

I selected File>import and I browse to find the required file. Once I click in the required file, one small window appears saying "done", but the board's shape doesn't appear in my new blank PCB. Am I doing anything wrong?

Looking forward to hearing from you

Best regards

Javier

    Apologies for the delay Eric. This was just resolved over email. There are normally two main reasons why the DXF file doesn’t import correctly and for you the second was the solution: 1- The import may…

    Hi,

     

    I have the same problem using CS 1.3.  Have tried different versions of .dxf and .dwg, nothing helps.

     

    The function is described in the tutorial video Tutorial - Create and Edit Board shapes on Altium CircuitStudio, available at:

    CircuitStudio - Altium's Professional PCB Tool 

     

    I suppose it should be a supported feature?

    Am I using the wrong drawing format? Wrong type of content? Polylines, closed polylines etc.?

     

    Best regards,

    Robin
