I'm looking for how to find SW layers to transfer them to a DWG file

in general with SW we don't work with layers but with parts
(parts that are assembled in an assembly at least that's how I practice)
you can save your parts or assemblies directly in DWG via (save as)

in fact: my problem with saving a DWG plan, I would like the lines (parts, dimensioning, hidden edges etc) to stand out in different colors and especially different layers.
Thank you in advance.
Hello
I don't know if Axemble is your SW dealer but they made a good document explaining how the projection file works.

Hello.
That's what I was going to say. You have to use the projection files.
To help you out, here's an example of a projection file.
It's up to you to modify it to achieve what you want.

Quotation; piece, sketch, etc.
