DXF Import in CNC12 Lathe

New user here. Just purchased the Acorn CNC Lathe Pro package and was going through some videos and exercises to try things out. I'm having a hard time importing a DXF file as I don't see the "Import DXF" button in intercon as shows in one of the videos. Is this feature out of the current version or am I missing something? Cheers!

oh no... that explains why I couldn't find it.... Wonder why it's available in Mill and Router but not Lathe. A real bummer for Lathe users...

As I understand it, it has been added to the TO DO List for Lathe
