Multi layered SVG/DXF/DWG

Hi all,

I'm trying to use OnShape for lazer cutting / engraving (a single piece is both cut and engraved).

With that in mind I would like to export several sketches / surfaces into a single layered file (ideally SVG, but DWG of DXF should do). The goal is to directly have the different cutting and engraving style already split in different layers. Else I have to select hundreds of lines by hand in a very poor software to tell which one is cut and which one is engraved.


Is there any way to do this easily ? (maybe using FeatureScript, I'm also opened to solution using other software to "aggregate" efficiently the layers)

Thanks a lot !

    Nice idea!  I just had a bunch of laser cut parts made and it would have been great to have part names engraved on them.

    This is exactly what I'm looking for too.
