[GRASS-user] v.in.dxf lines with no elevation

GRASS GRASS user

I have a dxf file that contains both lines and points. If I import it into grass with v.in.dxf the lines end up at an elevation of 0, while the points show up correctly. I have verified that the lines do in fact have an elevation by importing the dxf both into google sketch up and blender as a test.
I googled around some and it seems like it used to be necessary to run v.in.dxf3d but I can't find that, and it appears that it was just incorporated into v.in.dxf, best I can tell.
Any suggestions for getting the lines to the correct elevation?

Thanks,

--Adam

Also, when I do the import I get a warning "3-d data in dxf file"

Hi Adam,

Can I take a look at the dxf file you tried?

Thanks.
