If I open an E12 file in EstlCAM and make changes (copy or move a component), save the project, then Edit Drawing, it opens in LibreCAD as “[DFX_Edit.dfx [Draft Mode]”. The moved/copied components I made in EstlCAM are not present. If I add something new in LibreCAD, e.g. make a new circle, select “Save” and then close LibreCAD, the file opens in EstlCAM as “DFX_Edit.dfx”. The new circle is present as are the moved/copied components I originally made in EstlCAM that were not shown in LibreCAD.
All existing layers are merged into one layer when the file is opened in EstlCAM. The new circle made in LibreCAD is shown. However, the moved/copied EstlCAM components are shown but not part of that layer, and are not shown as a separate layer - they can’t be hidden. Tool paths I had previously made, including on those “moved/copied” components remain as they were.
The DFX_edit file is in the correct C:/programdata/… folder. The source files are in a separate folder on another drive.
