<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Apologies, I didn’t quite understand what you were trying to do. So let’s start from the beginning again.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Thank you for sending on a sample, it helps greatly to understand what you are trying to do. Im still not 100% on what you are trying to achieve, so I have included
two separate examples based on your data.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">In this first example, I will assume you are just trying to output the Layer as a DXF with symbols and styling as you have them shown on the canvas, this can

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Now if you want a DXF with two layers,
<b>Grenzpunkt</b> and <b>Others</b>? You will need to split your single Layer into multiple layers. For the purposes of this I will assume were going for the two you have styled.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I don’t know why I can’t add actual columns, only virtual only seems to be allowed</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Ok, so first thing to remember is DXF is not a smart dataset, so we need to dumb down your data a little.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">To do this, we need to split the dataset into two layers, one for Grenzpunkt and one for Others</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">So firstly we need to categorise all data into the Layers we want (Grenzpunkt and Others), to do this we do something similar to what we done before. We create
a column let’s call it “<b>sgg_subset</b>” and into this we can use the following formula</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">CASE WHEN "TYP" = 20 THEN 'Grenzpunkt'</span></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">ELSE 'Others'</span></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">END</span></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Next we use the
<b>Split vector layer </b>tool to create however many layers we want, in our case two. We use our layers attribute as the
<b>Unique ID field</b>, making sure the <b>Add prefix to filenames</b> is ticked (what we called our column) or unticked, as you require. You can now specify the
<b>Output file type</b> and the <b>Output directory</b>. You can now click <b>Run</b></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Once this is completed, load you’re newly created Layers into the Project and style as required.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Now we can export to DXF using the tool in the first example. The difference being we want the
<b>ONLY</b> newly created individual layers ticked in the <b>Layer</b> box</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">If you want to improve how the styling, symbology is output, you will need to work on the QGIS Style, modifying it to get the desired output in DXF.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Any of the steps above can be modified to suit the outputs you want.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I have attached a zip file with the updated project and the output DXF examples, I hope it helps.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
