I looked at the ideas on this issue, voted, but they look disjointed and not always in fact.

 

In fact: 

IN BIM age we still need dwg export. Often there is a need to break elements in one category into several layers.

Now in layer modifiers we have a rigidly pre-set set of parameters, the logic of which in some places is controversial.

(For example, we need to export the walls to different layers, and we write types in "Fire Rating" because this is the only parameter that can be freely edited by type in Layer modifiers list. In the "floors" category and other, is there no such possibility, and then break types into working sets? Seriously?)

All we need is (love) just the ability to add our (system, project, shared) parameters to these modifiers. It will be grandiose!

The enhanced DWG exporter can do this for you: http://www.biminteroperabilitytools.com/dwgexporter.php

I'm also longing for this feature to be implemented in Revits embedded DWG export engine. This great idea from @Anonymous would greatly increase the control of DWG layer export! Both thumbs up!

CAD export is pretty much useless when you can't name things how you want.  Why doesn't autodesk listen to the end users?
