Exporting interior walls to dwg I-Wall Layer

Does anyone know how to export interior walls to dwg I-Wall layer rather than A-Wall layer?

I have set the so-called 'interior walls' function to 'interior'

However, when exporting this to dwg, this type of wall is still in the A-Wall layer. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Are you sure the Walls/Interior export to "I-Wall" Layer under Export Setup?  

 

...post screenshots of your Export Setup.

I think all walls are set to the 'Walls' category. Any way to drop the interior walls to 'walls/interior' category?

What is the Function - Core-Shaft set to?

When I exported the gypsum finish went to the I-Wall layer and the core of the wall went to the A-Wall layer.  Try to set the core-shaft to interior and see what that does.

Please see attached. Anything wrong with my export setup? Or any other reasons?

FWIW: I opened your file with Audit and Detach from Central checked.

Thanks for you reply.

 

Did you use my export setting called 'dwg export'?

 

Also, I had the same wall type here in the image. But when exported to CAD, they are dropped in different layer. One is in the A-Wall layer and the other is in the I-Wall layer. What is the reason?

I copied these 2 walls into the same file I send you just now.  Below is what happens. A possible reason is something is not correct in my export setting. But I didn't find out. (I attached a new one that shows the image below.)
