I'm trying to "Export to AutoCAD 2007" a sheet. The light fixtures on the reflected ceiling plan do not show up on the exported file, however they show on the original file. What needs to be changed?

Hi Jackie,
Couple of questions. I don't know if I have a solution just trying to get more information.
Do the lights show up in plot preview?
Are the lights the only thing that doesn't show up are is it all MvBlocks?
Are the lights MvBlocks, Devices, or just blocks?
Let us know and maybe we can narrow this down.

Some see the glass as half full, others as half empty. As an engineer I see the glass as twice as big as it needs to be. ~Unknown~
Maybe try to edit the MV Block defintion by adding a View Block to the PLAN Display Rep.
Try this on one of the lights, then export.

As a thought (this usually works), if what you see is what you want, you could try to use the "Createhlr" command. This will create a 2d line work block, with layers from the objects. The results can sometimes not be the best, but it might get you what you need. Just a thought.
Is your display set to "reflected"? If not, neither the light blocks nor the ceiling grid will be visible.
