When save as dwg, traces don't appear

[Anonymous]

I try to save as dwg my .pln project. However, I want to see trace references from other floors in dwg format. I can see on the screen, when I work at the Archicad. However, in dwg format they don't appear. It is very crucial problem for me. Thanks in advance.

I don't believe it is possible.
Remember when you are saving as a DWG you are saving actual lines, fills and objects - these are all in 2D so you don't have 3D storey levels any more.
Your trace reference if you could save it would be all jumbled in with your main storey (they share the same layers).

You will have to save a DWG for each storey and then overlay them in what ever other software you are using to create the effect of a trace reference there.

You can however print a trace reference either directly to a printer or as a PDF.
