When importing a 2D curved beam from DCAD (for extrusion), the lines are not all imported into the same plane. The curved lines are in one plane and the other lines are in a parallel plane. I've double-checked that all lines are connected before exporting. Also, the lines import rotated 90 degrees (vertical rather than horizontal). How do I get this to import correctly?

Could you please give us the DCAD drawing?
In which modul do you import the DXF file? -
Here is the DCAD drawing. I'm trying to import into DCAM v 9.04.
-
I currently have no version 9.04 available. So I had to test it with version 10 and it worked without problem. With some tricks I saved the position of version 10 in a way that you can open it with version 9.

Thanks. I can work with this. I wish I could make the import work with the version I have now. Maybe I have to wait for v10?

Peter:
I was able to make this work in my version 9.04.Let me know if I can help you in any way....

Thanks for the offer, Jim.
I found if I import into a new, blank project, it works fine. Then I can bring it in to the project via the library or save section/insert.
