G'day all. This has been puzzling me for some time. I have set my dwg export settings to export the notes to a specific layer for autocad with a specified color. When ever I export the text revit puts it on the correct layer but the color is overridden to white and the leaders are overridden to red.
How can I make it so that all of the text is on the correct layer and the correct color when exported to dwg?
I use the setting "Export category properties BYLAYER and overrides BYENTITY". I use that setting because it's the only one I can get our linetypes to show correctly when exported to autocad (centre, hidden, dashed etc. linetypes do not show on the exported dwg when I use the other 2 settings).
Why do the Text Color Changes to White when exported to AutoCAD?
Request someone to help

We should open an idea to make Revit understand BYLAYER as a color. Autodesk should define a number to BYLAYER color, so Revit will understand it. Then, instead we have to set revit to create layers to color 1, 2, 3... we can set a number xxx and revit will export to dwg with BYLAYER, when choosed, eliminating some of rework...
