idw to dwg conversion

[mmojica]

when i convert a .idw to a .dwg file, why doesn't the revision block come with it? or is it just me?

What version of Inventor? It may be there just too dark to see. "mmojica" wrote in message news:20857021.1106333650527.JavaMail.jive@jiveforum2.autodesk.com... > when i convert a .idw to a .dwg file, why doesn't the revision block come with it? or is it just me?

Can you post (to autodesk.inventor.customer-files) or send me an e-mail with the IDW file that exhibit this behavior?

I think what the problem is is that by default the sketcher allows all items to be of a really dark blue color. So dark it almost looks black.

When the rev block is exported to Acad, Acad assigns color 255 to it. On a black background the rev block is not visable.

mm needs to change the color of his rev block (symbol) to another color, then export it to see if it is visable in the new color.

the problem only occurs when i edit the revision block (changed ZONE to ECO# moved APPROVED up and changed to APP. BY, 123 to ABC and changed to a smaller text size) The default block converts fine. and if i place the edited block twice, only the later will convert. a co-worker (C_A_D_M_A_N) tried the same changes in IV9 and all seems to convert fine. but i can reproduce the problem every time with IV9 Pro. is it PRO or just me?
