I just could not find an answer to it, hence this post.&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>I am using Archicad to create the basis for a VR environment. I am trying to save a model as a .dwg format. In this model, I make use of columns with custom profiles. These columns therefore consist out of a variety of materials. When I save the file as .dwg however, the different materializations in the custom profiles are ignored and it outputs a model where the complete column is one single object. Is there a way to save the model as a .dwg where these different materializations become different objects?<BR /><BR />Thanks in advance!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Kind regards,&nbsp;</P><P>Dennis</P> Wed, 17 Jan 2024 08:23:48 GMT DennisAndreoli 2024-01-17T08:23:48Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Save-model-with-custom-profiles-as-dwg/m-p/584291#M42821 <P>Hi all,&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Version: Archicad 27</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I am relatively new to Archicad, so I am sorry if the following question is a silly one.

Save a copy of the file.</P> <P>2. In the saved copy, convert all elements with these Profiles to Morph.</P> <P>3. Export as DWG, see if that preserves the materials.</P> Sun, 21 Jan 2024 14:52:54 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Save-model-with-custom-profiles-as-dwg/m-p/584819#M42838 Laszlo Nagy 2024-01-21T14:52:54Z
