Section view in drawing rotated and shifted when exported to ACAD

Dear Revit Experts,

 

I found that my Section view on Revit drawing, when exported to AutoCAD (.dwg) format, is rotated and shifted.  Anyone knows why?  Is that a potential bug of exporting Revit drawing to ACAD?

The detail of what I am doing is as follow:

 

1) Set 1 - I create a family model (Fig. 1), the site origin of my model is (0,0,0).  Then, in West Elevation, I create Section 1 (Fig. 2).  The resulted Section 1 is shown in Fig. 3.  Then, create Section 2 on Section 1 (Fig. 4).  The resulted Section 2 is shown in Fig. 5.  Then, all these are put in a drawing (Fig. 6).  Then, it is exported to ACAD (Fig. 7).  This resulted in some error in Section 2, in which it is rotated and shifted.

 

2) Set 2 - I import the family model into a project at (1000000,1000000) (Fig. 8).  Then, I created some sections as before (Fig. 9).  When exporting it to ACAD (Fig. 10), the resulted Section 2 is blank.

Why this happens?  Is it because of: 1) Double section, 2) Shifting, 3) Potential bug?  I am just guessing.  

I really need your advice.

Best regards,

Clement

Hello,

I think this problem was fixed after 10' version but check:

For rotation check this:

  1. Open the sheet, and select the view.
  2. Click the Properties button on the Options bar.
  3. Set the View Rotation on Sheet parameter to None, and click OK.
  4. Export the file as a DWG file again.

I will try to make same sections but i think there's no problems with section stacking :?

I hope this will help you!
