    Sync to Autocad - can i apply Layer colours?

    Hello there,

     

    i am currently creating factory assets.

    As the sync to Autocad feature is great for getting a better view at

    my factory designs I´d like to ask if it is possible to assign colours

    to geometry in Autocad (the files in the 2D folder of the asset) AND

    to get the asset to keep the colous of the layer as assigned, even if 

    I modify the size of the asset in FDS lateron.

     

    Where to assign layer colours to achieve this?

     

    Kind regards

    Hello Daniel,

     

    I don't think it is possible to assign the layer colour to the factory 2d asset.

    But in FDS 2014 beta, we can assign the layer to 3D assets and sync AutoCAD to get the corresponding layer of 2d assets.

     

    Thanks,
