The type of geometry is MESH, which shoukld be supported (in the same v.in.dxf page it reads: “The following graphical objects (DXF entities) are supported: faces: DXF POLYFACE MESHES, DXF 3DFACE”).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>When I import it in GRASS with the v.in.dxf, the only layer seems to be imported. The layer is recognized and the output message reads “46 primitives, 75 nodes, 192 vertices, and so on…<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>However, if I display the layer I can only see strange lines (while it should be a nasty bug!”). Moreover, if I switch to 3d view I can’t see anything at all.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I provide two links to my Google Drive, one for the .3ds I downloaded and one for the .dxf I exported with 3D Studio, which is the file I am actually importing into GRASS.<o:p></o:p></p><ul style='margin-top:0cm' type=disc><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1'>3ds: <a href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B75-5YcpJ_xmRk1LdkdGZjltazQ">https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B75-5YcpJ_xmRk1LdkdGZjltazQ</a><o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1'>dxf: <a href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B75-5YcpJ_xmbktQTUVPVXBTLTA">https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B75-5YcpJ_xmbktQTUVPVXBTLTA</a><o:p></o:p></li></ul><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks in advance for any help!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>umberto<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
