[Qgis-developer] Dxf2Shp converter plugin

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi,

 Until QGIS offers a way to select the geometry type (POINT, LINE, 
 POLYGON) I would like to keep the dxf2shp plugin. Currently QGIS only 
 picks the geometry type that OGR reports first, correct? This can be at 
 random. There is no way to control which geometries are loaded 
 currently.
