Hi,

How to use a crosstab to convert a fgdb to autocad with the layer, color, style and point to block settings in the crosstab.

Hi @gvenhorst,

We have a demonstration of how to do something similar in our How to Overcome 7 Top AutoCAD Road 'Blocks' webinar, where we use a set of CADD standards in Excel format to add information to a CAD to GIS conversion.

This same information could easily be used to supply the symbology settings in a CAD to GIS conversion, by merging the Excel data with the GIS features, then applying them with the DWGStyler transformer.

Thanks for the info, just a pity that the data itself can no longer be found.

The example gives a good picture of how I can set it up.
