Export to DWG

[Cristiano Alves]

I have two questions about export to DWG

 

1º Question
Is it possible to export multiple sheet layers into the same file?

For example: Two Sheet Layers will generate two layouts in the DWG file.

Right now, I can only export separate files for each Sheet Layer.

 

2º  Question
How we can export the patterns?
For example, this is the original design:


This is the DWG file open on Autocad.

As you can see, the patterns were not exported.

I tried that just yesterday as I thought that would not be possible.

 

But it is,

if you select "export All Sheet Layers" from dropdown,

(deactivate export to separate DWGs)

you will get a single DWG with n-times separate Paper Spaces,

according to your Sheet Layer number !

Those PaperSpaces (Sheet Layers) do not contain Viewports though.

Just different scaled Blocks containing editable 2D Geometry.

Which don't look bad !

 

Have not tested if it also works by just a smaller selection of all your SLs (?)

 

----------------------

 

I always thought you could either DWG export DLs or SLs.

But as I see, that way, the Model Space (VW Design Layer) also contains

some 3D Geometry, but also lots of unwanted 2D stuff.

But it looks all DL export is pretty arbitrarily, what concerns visibility

settings or not, real Z heights or just Layer or origin heights ....

 

But I saw that quite a few objects came in fine as proper ACIS Solids !

(Not sure why exactly, the other 20% similar objects came in as poor loose

3D Faces though)
