Hi Andreas
Wow!
I know I am behind in reading the change logs for new versions, but I didn't see how far behind.
I'll definitely do some testing and report back.

Hi Micha,

This is already implemeted quite a long time ago. You have to use Menu "Project" --> "Import/Export" --> "Import Layers from DWG/DXF".

What it does: it imports the DWG/DXF into a geopackage and tries to keep styling and labeling as good as possible. DXF blocks are converted to SVGs. It should work fine in general, but of course there can be issues.

The major thing I am still missing is an easy way to georeference vectors in QGIS, since many DWG/DXFs use a local coordinate system.

Could you please report back if it works fine for you?

Greetings,
Andreas

Over the years the question of reading DWG format files has come up [1]. And there was even a crowd funding campaign some years ago [2] . Andreas' initial design requirements document [3] is still sitting on google docs.
Does anyone have some update on this?

Thanks,
Micha
