Crash on opening DXF file.

I am a new user. I was sent some DXF files (generated in Altium). When I open it I get a black screen & command line says: "Loaded document: C:\Users\Kris\Desktop\CubeMID Input PCB 5A Voltage Inputs.dxf". Print Preview shows the content but I cannot find a way of exiting the view.
If I click on the black screen after opening the file, the programme crashes.
If I import as an image I see a small white square.
If I import as a block & zoom in, I get the following:

What I need to do is to modify the schematic.
HELP

Re: Crash on opening DXF file.

The file and dxf version from Altium may not be supported completely by LibreCAD, it supports up to dxf 2007. You may ask to get an according file.
You also may try to use development version 2.2.0 rc, the issue with those lines spreading from the origin has been fixed there.
Or you can just delete them manually.
If there are no secrets about it you could provide a sample file here for inspection.

Hi,
Thanks for your advice. I have now been sent the file in DFX2007 so will experiment with that

Regards & Thanks
