I've been able to import dxf files. However, it doesn't seem like you can shade them. I.e. green leaves on a brown tree trunk.

Any ideas? :roll:

make sure you have UVs …you can do this in the viewport via “point texture coordinates” button, located on the right side. this is the simplest way to see if you have them. Use the textureUV SOP to create UVs.

this is a snippet from the “formats.pdf”

.dxf - “polygons, no attributes”

so, yes..you need to assign UV coords.


Good luck!
