Summary0002536: Unable to change axis on part made from dxf
DescriptionI have used DraftSight to create dxf drawing of a cone driver. One drawing has the relief from the side. I have imported this drawing into Freecad and made a shell by rotating the drawing. This shell I can change axis on.

The second drawing is by the back side of the driver. I have created solids from mounting holes and basket openings. After imporing into FreeCAD and having created the solids I could not change the axis, so I changed the axis of the shell instead. And then I did subtract from the shell. The resulting part "Korg" I cannot change axis on.

Steps To ReproduceDownload zip file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106944188/FreeCAD/axis/korg.zip https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106944188/FreeCAD/axis/korg2.zip
unpack
Open the drawing.
Try to change axis.

I have now upgraded teighafileconverter to 1.39. The downloaded md file gave the proper installation path. The http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=Dxf_Importer_Install tells you to open the macro library path, which I changed to my project. Same behaviour.

I have tried to change axis on the parts imported from dxf without success. I have tried all the object types in the input, circle, arc, line, polyline.

It was some time ago I made the first part, the rotated part. I believe that I copied the polyline in FreeCAD and used that polyline for rotation.

Now I have made draft polylines from the imported dxf, and then extruded and subtracted. I cannot change axis on the resulting part either. The cad file is here : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106944188/FreeCAD/axis/korg2.zip

I uploaded the korg2 file in 0002536:0007038 to the ticket JIC the dropbox link breaks like it did in the ticket description.
I've also added a forum thread: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=20052 where this ticket should be discussed
@more11 JFYI next time it's better to post to the forum before opening a ticket on the tracker

@more11 FYI it's recommended to use the latest 0.17 master and update to OCC 7.1

I extracted the zip korg2-2.zip and renamed the file korg2.FCStd1 to korg2.FCStd. Then I tried to change the placement of the object Korg001.

I don't understand the problem. Both .dwg's import for me on both 0.16/0.17 C++/legacy python importer. @more11 can you post Draft WB; Edit>Preferences...>Import-Export>DXF settings?

Import is not the problem. Changing axis in placement is the problem.

Maybe I'm thick, but I don't understand.
Maybe the problem is a misunderstanding of the placement dialog?
The "axis" define an axis that rotation acts upon. Changing the axis alone does nothing without a rotation. If this is the case it has nothing to do with imported dxf's, all objects behave this way.

It should be possible to change orienation by changing axis in placement.

@more11 so the question is: what you are observing doesn't only relate to DXF, correct?

@more11 FYI @chrisb can't reproduce (as per https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=20052#p218155 )

Can you please post a screenshot of the placement dialog showing what you are doing?
