Hi,
I would like to export Revit Walls with their different phasing into different AutoCAD layer (with different colors), how can I do so? For example, -A-WALL-E and -A-WALL are in different colors, and -A-GLAZING E is in another color.
See attached, thank you!
In the Modify DWG/DXF Export Setup dialog, click on the Add/Edit Modifiers for All... button. Then choose Phase Status and click the arrow right button to add Phase Status to the export settings, put a separator character in the separator column if you want one. Also scroll down to the Modifiers section in the dialog and adjust the phase modifier(s) settings.

If you assign different colors to the Phase Status modifiers you should get the same colors for Existing and Demo elements. I find that New elements remain associated with the color assigned to their category and temporary elements seem to favor the color override for the Phase Graphics. You'll have to experiment with it to see how your model and views export for you.
Also it can be much easier to resolve layer colors with a layer script in AutoCAD after the export. For example, all layers with "wall" in the name can be changed to use the same color using a script, a simple text file that collects all the same information you'd type at the command line to process the change of a layer.

Thank you Steve, so I created the following color override, but only -A-WALL-E was made after running the script, how do I make other layers also visible?
See attached, thanks!
Check out AutoCAD's help documentation for script writing, this is for wildcards you can use to use a wildcard for anything after A-WALL. That would allow you to write out a script that uses one entry for Walls another for Doors etc.
