Hi folks,

I try to get import a 'DXF' file into my project by Automation work.

How can I tell this methode to import the file as '2D Draft' ?
At the moment I get the file imported as Part. And the content of the part is empty.

Any idea ??

There is a getimporteroptions if I am wright. You can read and write these option before the import. Maybe there is a option available to switch to 2D document equivalent to the option in the gui.

Regards

Mark.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for your answer.
Unfortunately, I have already tried this methode, and there is no option to define the import as 2D document.

And.....
Is there a possibility to define "all" layers to import in the importer options ?
Then it will be able to have elements on the imported part.

Greetings
Chris

Hi!

In the importer options you can define KeyValues, there are some keys which contains "_EXTENSION", did you check if you find something like that? I know there are "ASSEMBLY_DOCUMENT_EXTENSION" and "PART_DOCUMENT_EXTENSION" (you have just to define the extension in the value) but I used to use just stp, x_t importers...

If this keys doesn't exists for dxf importer you can ask an enhancement.

Hi, unfortunately the DXF importer has no such options.
