Exporting dwg problem

[Anonymous]

If I publish views to dwg file, somehow the hatches get lost. I would like to have the drawings in AutoCAD with all the hatches. Anybody knows how to do it?

It is essential that you read the Help and elsewhere about the DWG Translator Settings. The built-in translators are just starting points, and are not appropriate for all uses.

Good to hear. The nice thing is that you can build a collection of different translators to produce different kinds of dwgs, or to target different standards (layer translations, etc) for firms you collaborate with.
