Fusion 360 export to DWG Exploded

chrislabar22 — Fri, 15 Jan 2021 22:42:36 GMT

When I export my fusion 360 Document to a DWG file, it wants to explode everything. I'm using Fusion to redesign my kitchen, and I want to open it up in a rendering software. But when I export to DWG to drop into the rendering software, this happens. Everything explodes. Is this something that I'm doing something wrong? Or is there a setting I need to check somewhere?

Do not really know what to tell you without the model. Please attach it. If you do not know how to attach your model, open it in Fusion360, select the File menu and then choose Export and save the .F3D file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a reply forum post to attach it.

The model is here in f3z format. I didn't see f3d.

I had the same luck you did with Exporting a DWG. I first thought it was because you did not add Joints to your assembly but even after I created a Rigid Joint between everything, it still exploded it. I did however get an export of SAT and STEP and converted both to DWG for you. The only thing lost is the color, I hope it can help you. They are attached.

Thank You very Much! What was your process for that? I had it exported as a sketchup file at one point, but when I pulled it into Lumion (Rendering software) I wasnt able to mess with materials too much. If I changed the fridge to Stainless, half the cabinets would go too.
