Latest update causes DXF export issues

I am finding missing sections in DXF exports now. Really need this resolved because I export many designs to older equipment.

This just started today after the update. Yesterday it was fine. Occurs with fit point spline elements.

Hi, 

Are you talking about 2D or 3D - export?

tried to open it in Inkscape, Bobcad, and my plasmacam cnc and so far it refuses to read the spline element..

im in somewhat of a panic because this means that any 2d dxf that i export I will have to draw by hand and hope for the best.. this is making me look really bad... Hard to explain to the client what is happening and that my main design tool can't do simple things. ugh..

OK I am having to convert all my 2d extracted curves to polylines manually. This is great..

Hi,

If you would share a sample design with corresponding notes, something could be said about this.
An export of 2-D data is done via the sketches in the browser and not via File > Export!

I just tried experiment on my machine and could not reproduce the issue.

Can you Attach source *.f3d file (make up dummy file if your data is proprietary) and resulting *.dxf file?

It is now fixed after the last update. 😎

Unfortunately I am not using Fusion so much for dxf or creating flat patterns anymore. Being an independent contractor results are paramount my workflow has changed to where when I need a dxf I export my solid models to another software who I super don't like but they get the job done and I have never had a dxf failure with in the past.

No big deal just know that some of us pay our Fusion 360 bill with blood. 😃
