Hi All,

I’m working on a workflow to project a DWG from one coordinate system to another. The workflow works fine but am having issues to write autocad_oriented_arc into the DWG final output. I did some test to write it to GIS format and those autocad_oriented_arc write ok but for some reason can’t get them to work in DWG format,

I’m sure that am missing some settings in the writer because the visual preview shows those arc fine, see below:

 

I’m using the following:

FME(R) 2023.1.2.0 (20231110 - Build 23641 - WIN64)

Writer Autodesk AutoCAD DWG/DXF parameters as follows:

 

Thanks!

This is interesting, as it was supposed to be fixed in 2022.2. Do you see any warnings about dropped features in the log when writing the output?

Perhaps contact Safe support (through your reseller) and ask for the status of the following issue:

FMEENGINE-70680 "IFMEOrientedArc rejected by ACAD writer"

    Thanks @david_r I finally got around by following the last answer of the following post: 

     

    Adding an ArcStroker before and then ArcEstimator did the trick! 🙂

    I may give it a go in a previous version of FME (e.g. 2022 or 2020)

    Thanks - ArcStroker before and then ArcEstimator did the trick! 🙂 I followed the last answer in the following post: 

    I will try to use another version of FME and see what it does

    Thanks @david_r for replying my post yesterday, I though that was able to fix it but did more tests and isn’t fully working,

    My workbench needs to project an AutoCAD 3D Civils DWG file from one coordinate system to another. After the PROJReprojector transformer the  'autocad_oriented_arc' show correctly in the Visual preview but form some reason can’t be written into DWG (I tried Autodesk AutoCAD RealDWG DWG/DXF and Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D Object Data).

     

    I have also converted the DWG withouth PROJReprojector transformer and seems to write the ‘autocad_oriented_arc’ correctly. It seems the ‘autocad_oriented_arc’ can’t be written into DWG after being projected using PROJReprojector,

     

    Any idea it would be great
