Hello,
Do you know why autocad_color parameter is allowed from 0 to 256 for Autodesk Autocad DWG/DWF writer but is strictely limited to 1-255 for Autodesk Autocad Map 3D Object Data writer ?
It prevents to write entities with ByLayer (256) or ByBlock (0) Color parameter in addition with OD tables
Hi,
Thank you for your post. After further inspection, this may be an issue (Filed [FMEENGINE-83754]). We will update you as soon as we get insights.
Thank you!
Hello,
Thank you for your patience. This is the intended behavior of the ACAD writer. It seems that the one you are referencing here is an outdated or older version of the writer. We recommend updating to the newest version (what it looks like):
These settings are for defining a layer’s appearance. You can set the the color of an entity on a layer to be ByLayer or ByBlock, however in AutoCAD, layers must be given an actual color.
To write entity colours ByLayer, you could change the autocad_colour attribute for those specific entities.
Hope this helps!
