We often need to export 2D engineering type drawings, drawn in Rhino, to .dwg for sending to clients. There have been an number of bugs in Rhino 6, that I have been hoping will be sorted out in Rhino 7. I test them now in Rhino 7 WIP 7.0.20042.9575, 2020/02/11, and some have been fixed but there are now others. I will list these issues under seperate topics to keep responses clear.
When opening a 2D drawing exported from Rhino 6 SR 22, in a .dwg program like Draftsight, NanoCad, or AutoCAD, the annotation text aligns vertically, when it was horizontal in Rhino:
@Rhino WIP developers, any chance this issue can be sorted out in a WIP release? I just checked the latest version (7.0.20133.11585, 2020/05/12) and it still has this bug.
@mary . I see there has recently been a Rhino 7 update, but unfortunately the above issue is still not sorted out. Please can this bug be looked at. It must be a relatively simple case of assigning the correct leader text color for dwg export / save as.
Thanks for the images. “but now the colour of the text is always black:”

So the dimension in Rhino 7 is oriented correctly, it is just black Rhino 7 export DWG, and the DWG is imported to AutoCAD and other apps. Correct?
We need a 3DM file that will show us the issue when we export to DWG.
Could one of you attached a 3DM that will show us the issue?
