DXF import works normally for me. Can you attach here the dxf file that gives problems? |

I have the same issue whether I am importing the DXF file into an existing document or opening it as a new document. The files I am trying to import are the cooktop.dxf and sink.dxf used in the "FreeCAD - A Manual": https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/FreeCADmanual/blob/master/files/sink.dxf https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/FreeCADmanual/blob/master/files/cooktop.dxf When trying to import (File -> Import and then selecting a file) or (File -> Open and then selecting a file) things seem to work but nothing is happening except an automatic View Fit. Nothing is added to the 3D view and no error notification is issued. Nothing is added to the Model Tab of the combo view. Nothing is reported in the Python Report View The following is shown in the Python Console view: >>> import importDXF >>> importDXF.insert(u"C:/Users/.../FreeCAD/sink.dxf","sink") >>> Gui.SendMsgToActiveView("ViewFit") >>> ***Remark: the "..." in the paht of importDXF.insert command are from me to remove a long string of path components I have upload a screen capture of the preferences setting after I have unchecked the two upper check box (Show this dialog... and Use legacy Python...) that are set by default in the downloaded version of FreeCAD. Here are my FreeCAD info: OS: Windows 10 Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0.16.6706 (Git) Build type: Release Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-16 Hash: f86a4e411ff7848dea98d7242f43b7774bee8fa0 Python version: 2.7.8 Qt version: 4.8.7 Coin version: 4.0.0a OCC version: 6.8.0.oce-0.17 |

oh ho--- the problem is not the DXF importer, but those files! I forgot to "purge" them apparently... If you mark the "group layers into blocks" DXF option, it works fine. But if not, the importer creates about 6700 shapes! All the blocks present in the file are imported. On my machine it doesn't produce an error, but takes many minutes to process and eats a lot of memory. The legacy importer doesn't have this bug and also works fine. I am now fixing this to skip importing blocks that have no instance in the document. |
