Most of these DWG-attributes from CAD are removed during transformation. Is there a way to add, keep and set these attributes in FME? Directly adding them as user attributes did not get recognized in the writer.
The single “autocad_extended_data_list{}” is present as a format attribute but nothing else.
All the attributes are available on the dwg reader.
U need to expose them on the "format attributes" tab on the reader ( a large list)
U can also use an attributeexposer, this is particularily hadny if u are well known with the autocad format and can type in what u need by heart.
Very usefull in this respect is FME readers and writers bible "autocad" section.
