Hi,
I am trying to export UG model view to DWG format. But in DWG file it shows all hidden/tangent lines & edges. Its very confusing to find out in dwg file which lines/edges to keep or delete. Is there any way we can export without hidden/tangent edges. I have tried all visual settings in UG before exporting.

NX9

Thanks in advance,
Suri

Create a drawing sheet in NX, add the views of your model that you want to export. Edit the view settings to turn off the hidden and "smooth edge" lines as desired before exporting to dxf.
