    Remove drawing border .dxf

    Tom the Bomb replied to Tom the Bomb's topic in General discussion

    I've been able to get the .dxf to open in Graphtec Studio without the drawing border from my CAD program. In the CAD software (Siemens NX) there was in option for layers to disable. By disabling layer 256 the drawing border was suppressed and then I was able to open the .dxf in the Graphtec Studio software.

    Remove drawing border .dxf

    Tom the Bomb posted a topic in General discussion

    Hi, I'm brand new to the FC8600-60. I need to cut a pattern that I have as a .dxf. I am using the free Graphtec Studio software. When I created the .dxf it had a drawing border around it. Now I want to remove the drawing border and just send the cut job of the actual drawn geometry to the cutter. I tried using the eraser tool but that doesn't seem right. 1) Can you tell me how to delete the drawing border from the .dxf in the Graftech studio software? It seems like I am better to keep the .dxf format so maybe the answer is to go into Siemens NX (which I used to create the drawing) and figure out how to delete the drawing border in there. 2) It seems like Graphtex studio preserves the vector information of the .dxf so I can be sure that there is no scaling going on (unless I purposefully change the scaling). Is that the case?
