Defaults.xml
Based on a default configuration file (Defaults.xml in the configuration directory of the CAD export) and the layer settings of the current MXD, a configuration file is created for the CAD export. Inside the default configuration it is searched for the task with the corresponding attributes Renderer and ShapeType for every layer. If no entry is found, it is searched for the renderer unknown and the respective ShapeType. If an appropriate entry is found, it is written in the output configuration file.
