Improve DWG Export

Currently when exporting drawing models to DWG it appears as if the OBD-specific geometry is completely ignored. What I mean is that the entire represantation based on F/P assignment is not respected in the DWG file.

I would expect the DWG file to look exactly the same, with same levels, same colours, same hatches and fills, ...

How frequently will feature be used? Several times a day
How much time will you save? Lots! Now I have to manually clean up my DWG's sometimes. Or have a DWG that looks different to the PDF file which is very confusing for project and site managers.

    Hi Johannes, I have been trying to test. However since it's a situation that works sometimes but not always I can't verify your solution right now.

    I'll keep it in mind though for the next time the issue appears to try this button!

    Hi Johan, two weeks ago I mentioned a solution that solves the problem at our end. Please let us know about your experience with this workflow. Thank you!

    Hi Johan, if you do a DWG-export of drawing models in OBD, you need to check the DWG Reference option "Merge Visible Edges of 3D Attachments". See also the attached screenshot. If you still have issues using this option, please let us know. This would be a bug.
