import

Imports one or more points, lines, waterlevels or polygons. The following file formats are supported: dxf, step, stp, brep. In case of a dxf import, it is important to set 'INSUNIT' global variable in the dxf file to the desired unit.
Imports points, lines and polygon from a specified location into the geometry with specified scaling factors in x and y directions at the specified insertion point.
import "points" "C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf" (1 1) (0 0) Imports points from a specified location C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf into the geometry with scaling factors of 1 in both x and y direction, at the specified insertion point (0, 0).
import "lines" "C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf" (1 1) (0 0) Imports lines from a specified location C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf into the geometry with scaling factors of 1 in both x and y direction, at the specified insertion point (0, 0).
import "points|lines|polygons" "C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf" (2 2) (1 1) Imports points, lines and polygons from a specified location C:\PLAXIS2D\Importables\geometry_file_dxf.dxf into the geometry with scaling factors of 2 in both x and y direction, at the specified insertion point (1, 1).
