You should look at the Get_DFX_Objects module in the example
file you mention. (It is the second module in the file.)
This is the module that actually reads the DXF file and
is the information you want.
Having a white window when you first work with
object graphics is not unusual. In fact, most of
the people I know consider it something of a minor
miracle to see anything at all in the window even
when they are reasonably sure what they are doing
in the object graphic system. :-)
My guess is you have probably successfully read
the data. But the example program is probably
not scaling the data into the viewport window
in a way that will allow you to see it. You may
have to learn enough object graphics (sigh...)
to allow you to do this.
Cheers,
David
