Any demand? I know we get asked about it a lot.

Hi Mark,

the new Export with Display Rules works with user made Display Rules. Thematic display is a bit different and is not currently supported. It is something we will investigate for the future if there is sufficent demand.

Regards,

Looks like the process works sending colours to DGN (not DWG) and does some weird things with creating materials in the temp folder that get removed at the end of the session. It seems like the shading is produced using materials and not CAD symbology.

At least allows for export to FBX using exported DGN (opened in the same session), but needs some work for deliverable CAD formats.
