importing DXF files

[lostman_amiga]

Does anyone have issues importing DXF files in the latest update?

[davebYYPCU]

No, mine are AutoCad dxf.

[Warmingup1953]

No. What are the .dxf files?

[lostman_amiga]

These are files I made in Illustrator that worked just fine the other day before I upgraded them to the new version.  I even went back to Illustrator to create a simple square for testing. Fusion still could not load the file.

Opens fine for me.

Maybe try the repair option from the service utility. What are you seeing when you try opening the DXFs, is there an error message?

[lostman_amiga]

I reinstalled the program after the service utility seemed to crash the system. It might be something with my Mac.

I still can't load the files.  When I select the plane and the file I wish to insert it on it just sits there and does nothing with no error.

[lostman_amiga]

this is odd because it was working the same day right before the upgrade install

Hello @lostman_amiga 

Sorry to know that you are facing this issue. May I know your system configuration? (OS and processor)

Thank you

@lostman_amiga There's a reply in this post about a known problem with intel macs.

Thank you!

This looks to be the same kind of issue.

Importing SVGs seems to to be fine, I will work with them for now

I am having the exact same issue ever since the update.

same for me. insert-window just freeze - no way to upload dxf's that worked just fine monday. any way to get an older not updated fusion ???

[gedwardham]

The interesting thing about this problem is that after selecting the plane to place the dxf file on the drop down INSERT DXF box remains on the screen with [OK] greyed out but the program does not freeze and selecting all other functions still work.  It looks like the program just jumps over actually placing the dxf file onto the workspace.
I did find that I had an earlier version of F360 saved onto my computer but trying to install that it tells me I have the latest version already installed and wont continue with the older installation. I suppose I could uninstall the new version and then install the old version but for the moment I am hoping that AUTODESK resolve this issue soon with an update.

go to message #10 and follow the link. it seems like an issue only related to macOS on intel and we'll just have to wait for a hotfix

[gedwardham]

Yes that's me. Thanks and I am sure a fix will be happening soon. Fingers X.

in the meantime i use my macbook pro M1 to do the fusion job - autocad on one machine, fusion the other and then back to the slicer at the big screen
