      When i export from layout to dwg, in the model mode, the lines are all black, i have to change the color to white by parts. Even if i change the color by layer it doesn't work. If i export the model from sketchuo to autocad it works fine. Any idea what am i doing wrong ?

        Hi, can you send a sample model? I have found this to be true as well, but when I color by layer in Draftsight, it's fixed nicely.

          I just tried it on LayOut Mac, and it worked for me. Here's some things to verify:

          1. The style with edges colored with something other must be saved (verify in styles inspector in SketchUp).
          2. Make sure you updated the model in LayOut: check File->Document Setup->References to be sure.
          3. Render the model in vector.
          4. I exported to DXF because it was easier to see my output (Google Docs renders DXF's - sorry, still setting up the office). It worked for me with my beautiful lime green edges.
