Hello
Can EmlidFlow software load DXF files as in the attached screenshot?
Currently, points and lines are created during DXF import. They are difficult to read and I do not have a map preview as in the attached photo.

Not in its current form, it strips everything out and shows it how you are seeing it.
I do wish it was able to handle DXF/DWG better like some other products out there.

The ideal feature would need to implement as importing DXF (2D/3D, .dwg and other formats) as a LAYER with visibility / color level controls.
It would also need the ability to select certain needed elements (points, lines, arcs, circles, curves, splines, txt) to convert to the survey project for staking etc.
Prior to all of this, the user needs to minimize the complex DXF file anyways before import into Flow.

Hi guys,
Thank you for the feedback!
For now, Emlid Flow indeed shows the geometry from the imported DXF file. Can you please specify which features related to the DXF you’d like to use? I’d like to pass your words on to the team, but the most straightforward way would be to mention the exact features or workflows. Thanks!

+1 for timd1971 echoed points regarding layer visibility & color controls.
And not just for DXF, the features and behavior should be consistent for any background vector layer including .shp.
