I am exporting a OpenPlant model to AutoCAD. When the AutoCAD operator opens it up and flat files it the pipes disappear while the fittings remain. I am not an AutoCAD operator. Is there a setting I can set when I translate it to AutoCAD. I merge all the reference files into one file.
Hello,
Thanks for you query on Plant Forum!
Can you please provide some steps along with image to verify the case?
Also please attach file for testing.

Gladly. How and where can I upload the files?
I found out how to insert files.
I open the model file in Connect. Go to File Export common file types. .dwg. Open Options. We use our .dws file that is attached. (We always merge the references) and hit save. It translates fine, but the pipe spool all show as mesh (Can this be fixed with a toggle in the dws file)The autocad operator gets the view he wants in then flat files it. The pipe spools disappear because they are not solids. Is there a way to fix this please.Let me know if you need anything else.
