Flat Pattern DXF Export moves arcs

Anonymous — Wed, 18 Apr 2018 14:34:50 GMT

I have 2 parts in a sheet metal assembly that have arcs that move in the DXF that is created when using the DXF Export button from the flat pattern. Only 2 parts of a similar shape appear to be doing this. Here is one of the parts. If I create a drawing of the part, I can create a PDF. I created a DWG, but it gives an error when trying to open the file.

Arcs have moved in DXF output from Flat PatternPart shown correctly, but DWG output from drawing gives error when attempting to open.

I get the same results with the flat pattern. That could be a defect and needs explored further.

The DWG opens fine - i do get a Proxy notification but for the most part this is not an issue. Its likely a link in the .dwg file showing where it came from. If you get a different error please upload a screenshot of that here.

I use eDrawings 2018 to check the appearance of DXF & DWG files that I output. It just opens as a blank window.

I would still like to know what happened with the arcs.
