https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Installation-update/Dwg-export-issue/m-p/221827#M23281 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>So I finally signed up to the forum because I finally had a problem that I just can not figure out. I have been exporting archicad files to DWG for years and never had this problem. I usually need to export projects to dwg to send to engineers and subs, normally I will use the layouts to dwg method and the layer by color translator. The result is a cad file with a layer structure that matches the same layer order as my archicad file, with the addition of window and door layers. <BR /> <BR /> The problem I'm now having is that the resulting cad file has layers based on each view from the layout or the particular view. For example, I have a file with 3 stories and 4 elevations I want to export, the cad layers produced will include a new layer for each story and elevation for a single archicad layer, such as:<BR /> <BR /> a-first floor -wall ext<BR /> a-second floor-wall ext<BR /> a- third floor- wall ext<BR /> a-north-wall ext<BR /> a-south-wall ext<BR /> a-east-wall ext<BR /> a-west-wall ext<BR /> <BR /> or something to that effect. <BR /> <BR /> Does anyone know what i may have done, or changes I may have made that could have caused this.<BR /> <BR /> thanks in advance for your help</T></DIV> Tue, 10 Jul 2018 19:51:18 GMT Anonymous 2018-07-10T19:51:18Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Installation-update/Dwg-export-issue/m-p/221827#M23281 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>So I finally signed up to the forum because I finally had a problem that I just can not figure out.
