Description of the bug

PyAEDT can not import dxf drawing in Q3d design. The error message as below picture

Steps To Reproduce

code block as below:

import os
from pyaedt import Desktop, Q3d

project_name = 'test_project'
design_name = 'test_design'
desktop_version = '2024.1'
project_path_name = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'model', project_name + '.aedt')
dxf_name = 'Drawing1'
dxf_path_name = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'model', dxf_name + '.dxf')

# create q3d design
odesign = Q3d(project=project_name, design=design_name, version=desktop_version)

# set unit to um
odesign.modeler.model_units = 'um'

# import dxf file
layer_list = odesign.get_dxf_layers(dxf_path_name)
odesign.import_dxf(file_path=dxf_path_name, layers=layer_list)

odesign.save_project(project_path_name)
odesign.release_desktop(close_projects=True, close_desktop=False)

I try to import the dxf file manually and export a new dxf file. Then, this new dxf file can be imported by PyAEDT. Seems like PyAEDT can not decode the original dxf file.

Hi @akselchang,

Have you tried to import the dxf manually first? because I read in the error message that AEDT can't decode byte 0xe9 at a certain position.

Hi @gmalinve,

Yes, the dxf can be imported manually and I export a new dxf file from Q3D. Then, this new dxf file can be imported by PyAEDT. Seems like PyAEDT can not decode the original dxf file.

Hi @akselchang,

By looking at your error message it seems that the error comes from the get_dxf_layers and not from import_dxf. Would it be possible for you to share the failing dxf? or a dummy dxf that fails during import? Because this method works in our unit test. This will help us understand the matter.

Thanks

Giulia

Thanks for your checking.

Hi @akselchang,

I tried both manually and with PyAEDT and got the same error:
