Your DXF file have one polyline and une view (VPORT)
Opening it with LibreCAD the polyline are read and the current view are set using vport data.
But your polyline are on right of current view, simply exec "view->auto zoom" to show all the drawing

Hi Rallaz,

thank you for your reply. I tried it without success. LibreCAD finds and shows alls Layers, but not the polyline. I zoomed out and out and out... but I could not see anything. I tried to select the polyline via a rectangle containing the complete view. But LibreCAD selected no elements...

Do not zoom out, simply "auto zoom"

Seems there is a problem opening the file from "recently opened files"

Open the file using menu "file->open" and navigate to the file, next "auto zoom"

Thats the solution! Thank you very very much! It's working now! You're right. I opened the file via recent files.
