[Note]Note

  • When exporting to the dwg file, the information on the Layers tab page is stored in the file.

    Example: "Thick lines" are mapped to layer "AM_0" and are stored in the dwg file in yellow.

    Example: "Thick lines" are mapped to layer "AM_0" and are stored in the dwg file in yellow.

    If the file is imported into an existing drawing, then AutoCAD settings have priority.

    Example: Mechanical-Layer-Manager: AM_0 = white. The inserted part is depicted with white "Thick lines".

    Example: Mechanical-Layer-Manager: AM_0 = white. The inserted part is depicted with white "Thick lines".

    If the file is opened apart, then the depiction will be with the layer color specified in the dwg file.

  • Layers not existing in AutoCAD are created according to the defaults.

  • If you want to overwrite AutoCAD layer information, use the Export options tab page.

    Example: In this case the "Thick lines" are depicted in blue.

    • Insertion position: The insertion position in the CAD system can already be defined in PARTsolutions - provided your CAD system supports this function. Enter the X and Y coordinates.

    • Options:

      • Then insert into the active AutoCAD application [Insert into AutoCAD after document creation]:

      • Do not generate attributes [No Attributes]: ...prevents certain attributes (e.g. texts from PARTproject) from being transferred to the CAD system during export.

      • Type of dimensions [Type of dimensionings]:

        • Automatic:

          If a symbolic dimensioning can be created then it is used, otherwise the exploded.

        • Symbolic dimensions [Only symbolic dimensions] only:

          A dimensioning created in eCAT for the component or a dimensioning created in the PARTdataManager before the export is recognized as such.

          When using this option the dimensioning is created as "real" dimensioning. After selection the respective dialog is displayed.

        • Resolved dimensions [Only exploded dimensionings] only:

          Dimensioning and text are only displayed as exploded elements.

    • Line and color settings:

      By default, the settings are set to by layer. The color and line settings are thus a) dependent on the layer settings in the CAD system or b) on the settings on the Layers tab page. You can explicitly select other settings for lines and colors in the list boxes, which overwrite the layer settings.
