Hey Onshape peoples.

For work I often need to import DXF assets from Illustrator into OS to use as a extruded feature. e.g. a clients logo that gets debossed on a plastic part.

In Solidworks I used to import a DXF then 'create block' that would alow me dimensional control e.g. set exact size and or location on a surface.

In OS I don't see any option to do this. It appears that dimensionsing 'regular' DXF shapes etc is reasonably easy with the dimenion tool; but I often deal with more complex logos using splines etc.

My ideal workflow here would be to import a DXF, group the splines, lines etc, then dimensions and locate the DXF exactly where I want it in the sketch, extrude bla bla.

Why doesn't this exist?

Thanks

Try it. Start the song 'Drink Up Me Hearties Yo Ho' right at kickoff. Makes for some cool AF gameplay.
