DXF layout shape doesn't work?
V

I used dxf made in Inkscape and Flux can't recognize it.

I tried to import a shape with curves from Onshape.
It works with straight lines. But as soon as I add a curve, everything breaks.
PS: I posted this here because it's related, and the bug report is not closed yet. :)

I found the way to get proper DXF from Inkscape:
After you press "Save" in Save as... dialogue window
In next window you need:
clear these two checkboxes
use base unit "mm" (you still need scale 0.001 rule)
I used R14 format of DXF but maybe it will works with R12 too
Thanks Jharwin, you can close this bug report

Vasyl Skral thanks for the report and attaching the files. It looks like the Inkscape exported dxf you provided is not a closed polygon. We currently don't support this as mentioned in the documentation here - https://docs.flux.ai/reference/reference-inspector-assets#dxf
You can upload your dxf using an online dxf viewer like https://sharecad.org/ - and you will see it contains two polygon. (see screenshot)

Here's a dxf board shape of NanoPi_duo which is a close polygon. https://github.com/Tonymac32/Board-Geometries/blob/master/NanoPi_Duo.dxf This format always works on Flux
