When writing to the AutoCAD DWG-format you often want to set color, linetype and linewidth to By Layer.

Right now this can be done with a AttributeManager setting these attributes to these values:

AttributeValue
autocad_color
256
autocad_linetype
ByLayer
autocad_lineweight
-1


This idea is for making it possible to use By Layer as attribute value for all of these attributes. Right now it's not that user friendly to have 3 different values that means the same thing but in different attributes.
