Hi all!

My CAD layer is a mapimport from shapefile. So, it basically still has attributes when I converted to a layer with point type. When I wanted to export again to shapefile through FME, I don't know how to retain those attributes.

 

In CAD, actually you can use MAPEXPORT to retain attributes, but then it will be time-consuming if you need to export one by one when you have many.

 

So guys, do you have a solution for me to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

Hi @danilo_fme​ , Thank you for your response!

image.pngAttributes like in the picture above. I'd like to retain all of them in .shp format again.

I don't have a sample file to test, but I think if you use the "Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D Object Data" reader it will just read the attributes, as it is Object Data.
