Solidworks, how to add each sketches insto separate layers
Hello, very basic function but that seems to be out of reach for SW.
How to create a DXF from SW part with one layer per sketch?
Seems it can be done by entities only and not by sketches using the Preserving SOLIDWORKS Drawing Layers on DXF/DWG Export

To export each sketch as a separate layer in DXF from SOLIDWORKS:
Create a Drawing: Open a new drawing from your part file.
Insert Sketches: Place each sketch onto the drawing.
Assign Layers: Use the Layer Properties Manager in the drawing to assign each sketch's entities to different layers.
Export DXF: Go to File > Save As, select DXF/DWG, and ensure layer preservation is enabled.
This method ensures each sketch is placed on its own layer in the DXF file.
