DWG or DXF import result broken lines

[Ivan C]

The import function doesn't work very well. I've tried dwg and dxf, the result is the same.

The same file open with Adobe Illustrator is ok. See above images.

Here a screenshot of the original DWG file

 

Here a screenshot of the Affinity file

Hi @Ivan C,

Are you able to attach the file so I can take a look at it?

[Ivan C]

@Tim France I will post it Monday. Thank you!

Hi Ivan, 

Thanks for this, could you also provide the DXF version of this file so we can test with this too?

Lee.

@Ivan C,

Thanks for the file.  I can confirm it is a bug with how elliptical arcs are handled.  I'll get a fix together for testing.

Hi @Ivan C,

The fix has gone in for beta testing.  If there are no issues found, it will be available in the next update.  Your imported file now looks like this:

This is perfect!

Fast response. I'll wait for the update.

Thanks

[Ivan C]

Hi @Tim France, when will be available the next update?

Thank you

Ivan

Hi @Ivan C,

I can't confirm a release date but the beta is now available for you to try.  See this forum for more info.

I've installed the beta version (2.0.3.1670) but this hasn't resolve the bug. 

I havn't change anything on the import window when opening the dwg file.

Is there somenthing else that I have to do?

Ummm.... that's odd.  I've just installed the beta on mine and it's displaying the ellipses correctly.  Are you running Windows or Mac?  Must be a Windows build with 1670.  I'll get a Windows machine to verify.

Sorry about this Ivan. You're right - the fix didn't make it into the current Windows beta 😞.  It made it into the current mac beta but is only available in version 2.0.3.1671 on Windows (so close!).  It will be in the next retail version, and the next 2.0.3 beta version, if there is one.

Hello together

I have the same problem as Ivan. What you mean with:" is only available in version 2.0.3.1671 on Windows"? Do I need to update my current Windows version to make it work? 

Thanks for your help.

[Ivan C]

@Jenny von K. zu R. we have to wait for an update of the app that is not yet available. The version he was talking about is the beta version of the app that is also not available yet.

[Jenny von K. zu R.]

Thanks Ivan

I hope the update comes soon 🙂

[Ivan C]

Hey @Jenny von K. zu R. the last update (2.0.3) solved the problem for me.

@Tim France thank you. Form me the bug is resolved.
