Hello,
I am working on converting GIS data to a CAD standard. I have a template file, but the template file has root information (e.g. pipe, manhole layers) but I need to also include status information in the layer name (e.g. pipe-new, pipe-existing layers).
I cannot seem to be able to create the new layers with the information from the template layers.
I have a spreadsheet that has the name of the layer, the color, linetype, and description. I would like to be able to set the writer to use this information when generating the dynamic layer (e.g. pipe-new).
Here are the things I have tried to resolve this:
- Used DWG Styler - This might work, but it doesn't allow for description and it also doesn't use acad index colors as inputs
- autocad_color attribute - This attribute is feature specific and does not apply to the full layer. It does make the output look right visually, but it does not follow the layer standard.
I appreciate any suggestions you might have on how to do this.
