edgar_a 0 Posted August 14, 2019 I am currently using an evaluation copy of the software to understand more before I buy. I am a CAD veteran with over 30 years various tools starting with Computervision, Unigraphics, SDRC Master Series, AutoCAD, Pro/Engineer, Solidworks, etc.... It does not look like Home Designer Pro has very robust drafting and annotation tools, and frankly I think I would be much faster using AutoCAD for annotation. So I would like to export a layout file out of Home Designer Pro as a dxf file so I can import into AutoCAD and do final detailing there. Will this work? A specific example of what I would like to do is create a section view of a wall in Home Designer Pro, create a layout of it, and then detail and annotate in AutoCAD. Am I not understanding how this works? Is there another way to do this? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DavidJPotter 146 Posted August 14, 2019 Yes, that should work perfectly, unlike a ".dwg" file the layers exported will be only on a single named layer. DJP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
