CaptureHi, I'm trying to create a workspace to check multiple DWG versions, Iäve tried Real DWG reader and others, but cannot find the attribut that tells me the version. I made a picture below.

  1. Select multiple DWGs to read
  2. Check The DWG Version with a tester
  3. Output filename and check if version is 2013 as en excel(or user selected version test check)

My issue is mainly finding the version at all and making it into a tester

In the advanced settings on the normal ACAD reader there is an option called "Read Drawing System Variables".

Enabling this will create an"autocad_info" entity on the 0 layer with an attribute called autocad_version.
