With DXF export, you can draw either a rectangle or a free polygon on the map. The geometries that intersect with the selected area are exported.

To export data as a DXF file:

1.Select all required layers via the Layers tab.

2.Go to the DXF-Export tab.

3.Select an area using one of the draw options available:

oUse the Rectangle button to select a rectangular area.

oUse the Polygon button to create a custom polygon. Click the left mouse button to set each corner point, and click the first point again to close the polygon.

4.Configure export options:

oClip Geometries: Check this option to clip all geometries to fit within your selected shape - features that extend beyond the boundary will be cut at the edge, ensuring clean export boundaries.

oAll Layers: Check this option to export all layers. When unchecked, only currently visible layers are exported.
