Do not export archiCAD penweights

Kristen

I got no response to this question when I added to an old thread so I will try starting a new one...

I wish to export dwg files from ArchiCAD 12 to Autocad 2007 and I cannot choose the option "do not export archiCAD penweights" in the translator. I know this worked in 11 but now I am unable to choose it in 12. I tried starting a brand new file and changing the translator there but it still was not possible. I have tried both with and without true line weights on. I tried turning of "Display only" option and various other combinations of settings in the translator but the "Do not export archiCAD penweights" option is still unavailable. Is anyone else able to make this work and know what it is I might be doing wrong.

I think this is a bug. I have the same behavior, nothing changes it and it was working in AC11.
I have let the guys at GS know about it.

Do we know any more about this yet? I still need to export without archiCAD penweights.

Well, no new hotfix has come out since then so I think we will have to wait for one to appear to see whether anything happened about it.
