Hi Richard,<br>
<br>
QGIS 2.15 is now in bug fixing mode (until July 8). I would be very
interested to get such fixes into the next QGIS version - if it is a
bug. Labels should export fine with option b) (native export). If
not, it is a bug and should be fixed.<br>
<br>
But we need a bug report and a small sample data set. Perhaps you
can reproduce the issue with a subset of the data, or even with
another data format.<br>
<br>
There have been a few fixes in master (and 2.14) around rule-based
labeling. So it might be good to check master or the latest 2.14x
version. If you report the bug, please assign it to Jürgen Fischer -
he is the DXF expert. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Andreas<br>

I had tried both initially, with little success, the initial data
was DGN, I used an ETL to extract the line and text geometry, the
text coming in as points.<br>
I styled the text using the attributes extracted like text height
and rotation and all looks and works well within QGIS.<br>
When I use the Export to DXF tool (option B), I get all the
Linestrings perfect, but I get styled points (based on the
attributes) instead of Text.<br>
I have added the extra column to one of the Tables, and will try
the OGR export (option A) tomorrow with that.<br>
It is no big deal to add the column to the dataset, it can be
added as part of the ETL, If I get it all to work.<br>
I can submit a bug report, but as for the sample data, It is a
sensitive dataset, so I cant send that.<br>
It may also be the version of QGIS im using, not being the most up
to date 2.14.2-Essen<br>
I will continue with it tomorrow, if I find a solution, I will
post it.<br>
Regards,<br>

Hi Richard,<br>
<br>
How did you export your DXF?<br>
<br>
There are two options:<br>
a) Save AS (through OGR)<br>
b) Menu Project --> Export DXF which is a native QGIS DXF
export not using OGR.<br>
<br>
Option b) is much more powerful and should export your label
fine - not with all details - as QGIS labels are more powerful
than DXF labels, but basic stuff, such as font-family,
font-size, multi-line labels, etc. should be exported fine.<br>
<br>
If not, please submit a bug report with some sample data.<br>
<br>
Option a) is what was discussed here, but is much more
complicated - you would have to create separate columns with
feature styles first.<br>
<br>

I am back again,<br>
Using what you said as a guide, I added a column to the table
using the following<br>
<br>
ALTER TABLE mv_lv_network_point<br>
ADD COLUMN OGR_STYLE CHARACTER VARYING(80);<br>
UPDATE mv_lv_network_point<br>
SET OGR_STYLE =
'LABEL(f:"Arial",s:{igds_text_size},a:{igds_rotation},t:{igds_text_string})'
;<br>
<br>
s:{igds_text_size} Referencing Text size column<br>
a:{igds_rotation} Referencing Rotation Column<br>
t:{igds_text_string} Referencing Text String Column,<br>
<br>
I then used the DXF Export tool, with no success.<br>
What have I done wrong? Should I be doing this as an OGR2OGR
exercise as opposed to using the Export tool?<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Richard.<br>

<pre wrap="">With ogr2org (which QGIS uses for import/export), when writing a DXF
file, if you have an input point geometry, which has an OGR_STYLE
attribute, it will be written as a text geometry when opened in CAD.
This will work straight from a database as well. But there is a guide
that uses gml at:

<pre wrap="">Afternoon all,
I would firstly like to say that the DXF Export option is great, and is a
great addition to QGIS.
I do have one problem though which you you may be able to help with.
I have a PostGIS database LineStrings and Points (Text)
What I would like to do is have the text export also, all I get when I
export the points is....Points, no text.
I would appreciate any help, I am tying to get a Map out at the moment and
would have a preference to output it via QGIS.
Regards,
Richard.
