Exporting Revit to CAD - Layers

[davem]

Hello,

I need assistance with exporting revit sheets to autocad. On on of my projects, there is a telecommunications designer that does not use revit, so I have to put the tele/data outlets in my electrical revit model and export the sheet into autocad to send to them. I have the data outlets on their own workset and the power receptacles and devices on their own workset. When I export the drawing to DWG, Autocad puts both the data outlets and power receptacles on the exact same layer called A-ANNO-NOTE. What I need help on is figuring out how to make it so that when exporting to autocad, it takes each workset and exports it as its own layer in the DWG file. The telecommunications designer needs to be able to turn off my power receptacles layer to only show his data outlets.

Is this possible? I need to figure this out ASAP if anyone can help.

Thank you,

Dave

Good day,

I believe that would be achieved by adding Subcategories to your Family's Categories, to which separate modifiers can be applied.
