Exported DWG doesn't show viewports correctly


Recommended Posts

I've created a ceiling drawing file with several design layers in different scales and 4 sheet layers. Each sheet layer consists of several viewports from 1-3 layers and they show the desired contents beautifully.

As I now need to send my design to the HVAC designers, I exported one of the sheet layers to DWG. To my great disappointment, the result was very different from the expected:

- there were items visible from layers that were set invisible and not referred to in the original sheet layer

- everything was flatted into a single layer

I've triple checked the layer visibility settings in the viewports and explored both the manual and this forum, but I haven't found anything that might solve the problem. Any assistance is appreciated; is it really so (as I fear) that dwg's should be exported from design layers only?

We're using Mac OS 10.3.7 & VW Architect+RenderWorks 11.0.1.
