Hello FME community,

 

I'm trying to delete or merge some layers of DWG files and write them back as DWG files. during the transformation I lose my blockreference and the blockreference is written as a polyline. I would like to know how the blockreference can be written as a block reference.

the first picture refers to properties in the source and second shows properties after transformation.

properties_in_resource 

properties_after_transformation
