Hello Nate, welcome.

Most likely the line type is set to something dashed!

Best practice is to set up your own layers and set the line weight, line type and colour to what works for you!

Hi - I assume you are right :wink:

The dxf shows nothing unusual to me - please post a screenshot with a selected entity like this one. Thanks.

Looks like a secondary selection color is enabled under:
Edit > Application Preferences > Graphics View > Colors > Use secondary selection color
