Can't open DXF :-(

I can't view a DXF that I d/l from a website. Import is no problem, and viewing on other DXF online viewers is also no problem. 

 

Is there a way to view (and finally edit) it with Fusion360?

(note: when I convert it on cloudconvert to DWG it renders fine in Fusion360)

Use Insert DXF on the insert menu and it imports fine. If you want to upload then you need to upload through Fusion's data panel, uploads using the dashboard in your internet browser don't convert the file so all you upload ia a DXF and you'll still need to convert it before Fusion can use it.

I found that if I open my folder on the fusion website and drag and drop my .dxf file into my project file ON THE WEB then I can view the .dxf file complete with dimensions and text.

In the desktop app it opens the web browser and a veiwer, in the android app it opens and views great, but when you try to measure it only displays 1/3 actual. I havend figured that out yet, might be with my original export.

Anyway hope this helps.
