How to include the layers mapping in the DWF export

[w_martinezKQWBR]

Hi, I am new working with revit and I have a little bit of knowledge working with the CAD platforms.

I have processed DWF files and I noticed that I can get the layers from the data of each element, but in Revit I dont get that using the default export method and in the DWFExportOptions there is nothing that could help to include the layers, I only get one layer which is the Default one, I would like to add the categories as the layers in the DWF export file something like the Export Setup for DWG/DXF works.

Is there a way I can accomplish this for the DWF export? or how could I use this Export Setup Mapping in the DXF export? I would like to process or read this DWF file exported and mapped the elements inside it by layer.

Welcome to Revit and the Revit API. In general, the API is just a wrapper around functionality provided by the UI. So, if you can achieve what you are after manually in the user interface, it is probably possible programmatically as well. If  not, not. So, I suggest that you research how to achieve the desired result, the optimal workflow and best practices in the UI first, before addressing it via the API. Maybe the much larger and more generic Architectural forum is the best place to start researching this from the UI point of view.
