> I've begun playing with this program only recently. First of all, hats off to all those involved in it's creation. It's very difficult to explain 3D concepts and you've pulled it off very well.
> Now to my question. I'm used to my own CAD software and have a program that can convert files from the DXF format for use with the editor. Does anyone have any experience with this? If so, could you pass on any pointers? I'm curious as to how it will handle primitive lines and such pulled in from CAD. Should everything be contructed as 4 sided, closed polygons so they come in as sectors without a problem... etc. Thanks!
The only rule is that sectors must remain convex. There is no obligation of having them 4 sided or anything. Faces don't have to be triangles, and I think the only other limitation is 24 vertices per face.
