— BLOCK section (referred to by INSERT)
The BLOCK section typically consists of other DXF entities. The INSERT entity contains an insert
position and scaling factor. This enables deployment of the same BLOCK at different positions and
possibly with different scaling factors.
PARAMETERS:
DXF
Read a geometry model stored in a DXF-formatted file and create a Prefem geometry model. The geometric entities point, line
and surface are imported. A log-file is generated during the
reading. The log has file type ‘.LOG’ and will have the same
name as the DXF-file.
file-prefix
File name prefix.
file-name
File name excluding the mandatory file extension (.DXF for a
DXF-file and .FEM for a SESAM Input Interface File).
DXF-SETTINGS
Set control parameters for reading the DXF-file. Note that these
settings are lost when a READ command has been executed.
INCLUDE-THICKNESS
Control whether the thickness information on the DXF-file is to
be read (YES) or not (NO). Note that on the DXF-file the thickness information is unique for each surface. Default setting is
NO.
MAX-MESH-CORNER-ANGLE
Set the maximum angle for a surface corner to be defined as
mesh-corner. Corners having a larger angle will be defined as
not-mesh-corner. The default value is 150 degrees.
angle
Angle in degrees
POLYLINE-MODE
Control how the DXF polyline is interpreted and also whether
to create Prefem surfaces from closed polylines. These settings
are reset after the READ command.
CLOSED-TO-SURFACE
Control whether all closed 2D and 3D polylines shall be converted to surfaces (YES) or not (NO). All line segments of a
polyline will be converted to Prefem lines. Default setting is
NO.
