You cannot bake these items with these attributes using the Preview Component. As the name suggests it's just a Preview.

You can only bake the geometry from its source component without any materials or colour.

You can however use Giulio's Bake Attributes Component found here to bake objects with their GH set attributes of name, colour, layer name, material etc. Just remember to set your activate boolean to false after every time you use it otherwise you can get a very large Rhino Document in no time flat after every update of the GH definition.

that componnet appears with a label "OLD" in the last GH release. doesnt matter or still working unless appears like old ?

there´s some lines inside that had to be changed ?  i guess that i read something about it?
if yes then i have basic knowledge of programming so let me know that i have to change it to makes it work in the new GH release.

I use this component all the time and it works fine. I think the difference is the Newer VB.NET components have the ZUI (Zoomable User Interface), but since you would never want to add or remove any input parameters it doesn't matter. It got a recent update to make it compatible with version 0.8.0052 which was a major break in the SDK.
