DWG export setup import/export option required

DWG export setup import/export option required

Whenever we change in export setup setting ( like, layer, pattern, color etc.) during DWG export in revit, we can't reuse this setup in other files. Please add export/import option to reuse the setup in other files.

Hello @sujanc, thank you for the feedback!

 

DWG export setups are currently stored within each project file. If you want to reuse these with other files, you can use the Transfer Project Standards command.

 

Would prefer that these be stored within Revit (instead of the file level), so that all files have the same export setups, or that there is an easier way to reuse between files?

Thanks for the information.

Or maybe just bring back the ability to export the settings to a text file. Somewhere between 2010 (which can do it) and 2014 (which cannot), the functionality was removed. You can still IMPORT from those text files (like the one provided by the USACE), so if you feel like manually editing a text file...
