I have a similar request. I posted about it here: [Import of DXF shows incorrectly in Pix4dSurvey but correctly in Cloud - PIX4Dsurvey / PIX4Dsurvey Questions/Troubleshooting - Pix4D Community](https://community.pix4d.com/t/import-of-dxf-shows-incorrectly-in-pix4dsurvey-but-correctly-in-cloud/29064/4)

Perhaps if on import of a DXF it could ask if we wish to import it as an overlay so that it will appears as the DXF as it does in Cloud, or if we want to make the elements editable. Unless I’m missing something, flyover videos can’t be created in Cloud, so if I want to flyover in Survey with the DXF showing, it doesn’t look correct, or I need to turn off a bunch of points so that the flyover isn’t polluted with a ton of marker pins. Alternatively, give us an option to change the pin style or size.
