      An imported 2D .dxf model may contains open lines, instead of covered surfaces. So, you may need to connect imported lines to create covered sheets. In order to create these areas, you can use the following options: 1. Select the uncovered (but closed) lines and go to Draw / Surface / Cover Lines 2. Select the unclosed (open) lines and go to Draw / Surface / Connect.
