Re: What you export should be similar to what you import

 

Hi Prosper

CSV is using a very different system internally, and so it can't be added
to the "MetaData import/export" which we usually call DXF2.

Lars did the CSV import, but I'm pretty sure its a huge task to add all
these different kinds of metadata as it would be mostly a manual job.

So your question is related to CSV only? I see you talked about attributes
in the initial question (but I then assume attributes in CSV format?)
