all excited to try out v.in.dxf but 3DFACE isn't implemented yet
I can convert the DXF to a polyline version, and import with the new -f
flag, but I need to run v.build before I can display it. After that I
can do g.region v=, display with d.vect, & display in NVIZ (3D vector).
Looking in v.info the x,y,z ranges are all 0,0.
Note the final x,y ranges are both negative. (?)
Also it exits with "No DXF layers found!" for the 3DFACE import.
This had me really puzzled as the layer does exist, it is just all
of unknown feature types. Could the error message be improved?
"... with data!"
"Layers found with no features"
"No features in layer"
???
Any plans for 3DFACE support? The wireframe is good stuff, but just a
skeleton.
Well, I think usual coordinates in DXF are not geographic coordinates, but it
depends on DXF files.

v.in.dxf does not count layers it cannot import.

I haven't kept up with v.in.dxf since initially testing it and cheering its
incorporation into GRASS 6. But I'll be needing it soon and some of my
colleagues are using it quite a bit.
Is there a way to maintain a dxf entity attribute as a cat/attribute for
areas? The object it to avoid going through the complication of converting
lines to boundaries, adding centroids, adding cats, and linking cats with
attributes.

I'll add the ENTITY column some time later.

Thanks. I'm passing this on to one of my colleagues who needs it right away.
