You can't. It's hard to believe that the NX Border Creation function does NOT provide you with enough flexibility to get a usable Drawing border. I'd go back and try it again...

Hi john,

But I do have a template drawing whose border doe not look like Siemens border, it doesn't have sketch procedure but in the layer setting, I do see all lines are in one layer which is 211

problem solved, thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!

i need to to be more careful...

RE: i created the border using sketch, how to hide the sketch procedure in the part navigator

Use File- Export- CGM and export the border.
Delete the Sketch.
File - Import - CGM and import the border.
The imported border will be non-parametric, non associative objects.
exactly as a drawing border should be...

Regards.
Tomas
