We have a DWG Template that defines layer names, and a range of attributes like colour, line type, line weight, block names, etc. In the main this template contains no features.

I want to use the raw (featureless) attributes in the template to merge with an existing drawing to check if the layer names and associated attributes are matched.

Is this possible?

I have a table that has been created with the raw attributes and can merge that with the supplied drawing but if the template changes the table also needs to change, so was hoping I could remove the step to create the table and just read the template.

 

I'm currently aiming for the same thing, can this be done easily?

@kennyo if I figure something out, I will let you know. Cheers Dean


I got the first part of the puzzle worked out using the Schema (Any Format) reader as this will give me all the layers from the template, now to try and get the attributes associated with the various layers plus the many blocks that are defined in the drawing.
