Ive been working on a export setup from Revit to DWG to match my companies CAD standards. This is not easy, but im making slow progress. I wanted more control over layers so I decided to export all properties BYLAYER, and create new layers for ovverides. I like this because I can change the outline color of a column without messing with the hatch. (for example it names Concrete-elevation, concrete-elevation 1, etc..). I dont want to haveto change these colors and line weights in CAD everytime. How can I modify the newly created layes that the export creates before its actully exported? Is this possible?

Thanks

I believe it's all there in the Export > Options (very bottom) under the application pull down.
