dxf import into IsoDraw

[bfriesen]

We are moving to importing dxf files into Isodraw for line drawings. Is there a way that I can specify that a text layer in the dxf gets imported onto a layer labeled text in my IsoDraw template? or does this need to be done via a macro after the dxf has been placed in the file?

Thanks

Hi, the only (and best) way what I know is to do that with a macro ...

[bfriesen]

So you place the dxf, then run a macro against it to create the layers and move the different items onto them?

I do not do that because I don not need it ... but I would do it this way if needed ...

Hmm ok, then I will need to research how this could be possibley done. thank you for the suggestion.
