I’m exporting a 2d dxf file to open in Vcarve from the sketchup web app using sketchup shop. It has worked before but I’m getting a fairly consistent problem where my vectors are importing to Vcarve cut off on one end or both.
I’ve uploaded a screen capture that illustrates essentially what is happening. The truncated vectors on the right should be complete rectangles, but something is cutting them off.
I had the issue yesterday once and it was fixed by re-exporting (or so it seemed). Today it is happening every time. I’ve tried fiddling with my settings for export and import but nothing seems to help.
And thats the most recent .dxf file I’ve exported. I don’t have any other programs to check whether the .dxf is exported correctly, as Vcarve is the only program I’ve got that can open the format. I’m also trying to post in the Vcarve forums in case its an import issue.
I don’t see the missing lines in AutoCad either, so this is, I think, not a Vcarve problem.
(BTW, I recommend the free DWG TrueView application from the Autodesk webpages)
As with Anssi, I don’t see the missing lines in Acad or VCarve. Sounds like SU’s dxf exporter is failing. Why not just draw the shapes in VCarve to start with?
