    Cant Set Depth of Chain

    I am attempting to import a DXF of two circles to Lazycam. When importing my DXF to Lazycam, the chain only shows a depth for a single point on that chain.

    I have tried with multiple different files. How is it that i can get the depth for the entire circle to appear? I have attached a picture of what i am seeing. It is and isometric view of two concentric circles.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It would help if you could post a sample DXF file so I could try it.

    But in the meantime consider going into Setup/Loading Options and checking the value you have in "Connection Line Tol. used in Optimize." I suppose there is a chance your value is set so small that LazyCam isn't seeing your entire circle but only segments of a circle?

    If that doesn't help post a file and I'll try it and see if I can help.
