I would like to draw a complex board shape.

I have drawn the board shape in Autocad and imported into EasyPC V10.0.4, this process was simple and worked.

My problem is I cannot import the shape into the "Board" layer only to Silk or Copper.

Please help.

Thanks

John

The trick is simple. As you import, there's a table where you can choose which layer to use, and whether it will be track or shape. Look carefully at that pull down list. As well as track and shape, you can choose board. If you do, the layer box will be greyed out, and it will import as a board outline.
