Importing 3D dxf files from Leica iCS50

Hi mike,

re:

If you run into this please send me the DXF file.

In this case it was due to a "vertices follow" flag that Leica was not setting on POLYLINE entities in the DXF file.

Without that flag set MOI would not read the vertices in. However, it's only on very old versions of the DXF spec that this flag was required.

Since at least AutoCAD 2010 the spec was changed to say it's not required.

So I've tuned up the MOI DXF reader so it will read the following vertex entities whether the flag was set or not and that fixes this import.

If you run into these issues please report them and (most importantly) send in the DXF file so I have an actual example to test with.

Thanks,
- Michael
