Re: DXF import only works in default Canvas.

 

Hi Maciej,

I tried the version 6023 in win8 64 with the Marco's patch...
in pcbnew the import now is done also in OpenGL, but the shape is not shown in legacy canvas (I'm importing with fill polygons selected).
In module editor if I import the shape I get a crash

@Marco
in pcbnew when the shape is imported and shown, after selecting a block, it is not possible to move it
I cannot test in modedit because I get a crash after switching to OpenGL

thanks
Maurice

Thank you for reporting the issue. It should be fixed in revision 6023.

Hi Maciej,

I am testing this on Windows version: (2015-07-11 BZR 5925, Git
c291b88)-product release build

In all cases I have the DXF import dialog (both PCB new and module editor).

It is just when the OpenGL canvas is active, clicking Ok in the dialog,
there is no import happening. The 'Save' icon remains off/disabled and
there is nothing added to the PCB file.

When the legacy canvas is active, the import succeeds. The 'Save' icon
comes active and you can see the imported lines in the PCB file. You can
then switch to OpenGL and the shape is shown.

Attached the antenna DXF that I am trying this with.

Hi Marco,

I have just tried importing the mentioned file and it worked here. Could
you give some more details about the problem? What happens when you
choose File->Import->DXF file? Do you see the import DXF dialog? Does
the imported DXF shape appear at all?

Regards,
Orson
