[MX SS4] DWG export - model as layout

Hello,

I moved to MX SS4 and encountered a problem with export to DWG.
While saving a cross section drawing to DWG a content is moved to AutoCAD layout instead of model.
I suppose it is connected with some settings I don't know (I don't work on MS).

Does anyone know a solution for this?

Best regards
Aleksander Zamorski

  • Aleksander,

    I will have a look at this and let you know. It may be an issue with the REALDWG version you are using.

  • This may also be a case of Microstation/MX creating more than one Design Model in the process. Microstation can have more than one Design Models (Modelspace), while AutoCAD can only have one. When Exporting to DWG, there is a setting under Options -> Advanced for "Non-Default Design Models". The options are Ignore If Not Merged (Don't export them at all), Create Paper Space (does exactly that - makes them a layout tab instead of a model tab) or Create Separate Files (like it says, makes each Design model into it's own separate file). That's the option I think you want to use.
