Details
In the Solid Edge to AutoCAD DWG settings file an option "Import Blocks As Groups=0" is found but there is nothing to control the export of groups.
Is it possible to export groups as blocks?
Solution
It is possible to add an option manually to the AutoCAD settings file seacad.ini which is located in the Solid Edge Installation Preferences -> Translators Subfolder to control how groups should be exported.
Append the following to the settings file:
;manual added setting
;Flag : Export Groups As Entities
;Status: False
;This flag will decide the group behavior if it is exported as entities or block.
Export Groups As Entities= 0
