7.9.3.2.2. DXF import " dialog box (*.dxf file)

If you import a *.dxf file, the DXF import [DXF Import] window opens.

Filter [Filter of attributes/layers] for attributes/layer:
In this field, you will find a list of the layers of the import drawing and their assigned properties. Layers with the solid property are transferred to the PARTdesigner drawing. If you want to exclude layers/drawing elements from being transferred to PARTdesigner, select the relevant layer line and place a cross in the Ignore associated elements radio button (or several in sequence).

	Note
	In the PARTdesigner only those elements are taken into account/displayed that have the property " continuous" [Solid].

Element filter:
By clicking into the respective option field you determine which sketch elements (points, lines, circles, arcs) are to be transferred to PARTdesigner.

Error corrections [Error corrections]:
- Delete duplicate elements
  Lines that cover each other are deleted before the sketch is imported.
- Execute outline fitting
  Possible spaces between sketch elements are closed, since the sketch cannot be saved with interrupted contours in PARTdesigner.
- Execute DXFHealer
  Launch
  Using Execute DXFHealer, you can activate the function directly during import.
  For the already imported sketch, use the button in the toolbar.
  Examples
  The following examples show the results of an error cleanup:

  Message window
  If changes have been made they will be announced in the message window. If nothing is announced, no changed have been made.
  Example message:
```
Es wurden 3 sehr kleine Elemente entfernt
```
  The following message ares possible, among others:
  - x polygon chains were replaced through circles
  - x polygon chains were replaced by arcs
  - x very small elements were removed
  - x lines blended
  Configuration file
  
  Note
  To customize results as desired, you can change the settings in the configuration file under $CADENAS_USER/dxfimportheal.cfg to change the settings.
  - If 2 points have a smaller distance than pointEps, they are considered equal. The number of decimal places (in the example value below '3' [do not select values smaller than 0.001 for pointEps ]) is also determined by pointEps. However, there may be more decimal places for the center points of arcs.
    
    pointEps=0.001
  - If the difference between 2 angles is less than angleEps degrees, they are considered equal
    
    angleEps=1.0
  - If a polygon has more than minVertexCountForArc Corners that lie on a circle, it is approximated by a circle or an arc of a circle
    
    minVertexCountForArc=12
  - A polygon chain must have at least the length minLinesForArc in order to be approximated by a circular arc
    
    minLinesForArc=4
  - An element is considered small, i.e. it is removed if it is smaller than smallAbs or smaller than smallRel in relation to the total size.
    
    smallRel=0.0001 smallAbs=0.1
    
    Maximum distance to original (absolute and relative)
    
    maxDistToOrigRel=0.0001 maxDistToOrigAbs=0.1
    
    ABS are absolute values, REL is relative to size of part. If more is to be removed, then select the values larger. small<x> and maxDistrToOrig<x> should have about the same dimensions.

	Note
To customize results as desired, you can change the settings in the configuration file under `$CADENAS_USER/dxfimportheal.cfg` to change the settings.

Insert to [Insert at]:
Enter at which insertion point (X, Y) and at which Angle the imported sketch should be added to the current sketch.
Preview:
2D view of imported sketch.
Add
The imported sketch is added to the currently opened one.
Replace
The currently opened sketch is replaced by the imported sketch.
