- You need a left-hand AND right-hand gable but only have the left-hand DXF...
- The DADO layer is not being recognized because if was incorrectly labeled "DAOD"...

DXF Buddy
DXF Buddy is available in two versions - Standard and Pro. The Standard version incorporates a DXF Part Viewer and the ability to manipulate many aspects of the Layered DXF file without the need of accessing a CAD system. The Pro version has all the capabilities of the Standard module and also provide a DXF List Management module that allows you to create a list of DXF parts, set quantities, easily assign materials, mirror/rotate or "pair" individual parts and annotate each entry with a JOB/ASSEMBLY and CAB/SUB-ASSEMBLY designation. The lists DXF Buddy Pro "builds" can then be loaded into Control Nesting in one easy step.
Both versions of DXF Buddy 1.0 have an introductory price of less than $100 CAD!
