Export View Set To DWG

@Konrad_K_Sobon Can you please let us know what could be the reason? Thanks!

Code that I posted above uses a new DwgExportOptions() for every export. If you want to use the saved export options from your model you need to select them and use that in the definition.

@Konrad_K_Sobon Thanks for that. I am still having same issue :confused:

Yes, turning off the Export Views on sheets setting worked for me

Thanks @Scott_Crichton could you please share your dyn script.

Here you go. All the heavy lifting is done by Konrad’s script, I have just adjusted the nodes preceding it to get the output I am after.

a bit late, but thank you for the help, removing the type was the key to success! :slight_smile:
