Import a .dxf or .wmf graphic image

When importing .wmf and .dxf files, they are converted to drawing objects, such as lines, ellipses, and polygons.
TIP:
Depending on the complexity of the file, the converted image could consist of 500 or more drawing objects. This would lead to long display load time. In this case, it would be better to covert the .wmf or .dxf file to a bitmap, and then show the bitmap in an image object.
To import a .wmf or .dxf file on a display
  1. From the
    Objects
    menu, select
    Import
    .
  2. Click the mouse where you want to position the file, and then drag to draw a rectangle.
  3. In the
    Files of type
     box, select the type of file to import.
  4. Navigate to the directory where the file is stored, and then select the file to import.
  5. Click
    Open
    .
The file is converted to drawing objects and grouped, and then the grouped object is placed on the graphic display.
