Importing a DXF into eCabs containing an ellipse?

[Dale Wills]

I have drawn a shape in AutoCad that include ellipse's. Once I import them into the part editor the ellipse shapes do not come up. I have had this problem before and can't remember the reason for this. I know that an ellipse is a complicated shape. Does anyone know of a method to get an ellipse to successfuly open in part editor?

Hi Dale, not sure why you are having probs, after your last post about using the pellipse command in autocad i had no probs importing the ellipse into part manager and then cutting it. Is the piece of board that you are trying to put the ellipse onto big enough?

I posted sometime ago about the PELLIPSE variable in AutoCAD. Set it to either 0 or 1. I don't recall getting a reply posting from the poster as to whether it worked or not, but it appears that per Jason's email that it does.

Dale,

I remember making you one in another program quite a while back that worked. I know you are trying to find a fix for it, but if you need another one, let me know.
