How to copy and paste lines (not in a view) from one sheet to another?
How to copy and paste lines (not in a view) from one sheet to another?
(OP)
I am working in Drafting and would like to copy lines from one sheet to another. The lines are not in a view so I can't use the copy view feature. Transform doesn't seem to work either. Copy and paste only seem to work for text. Any suggestions?

All drawing entitities are 'view-dependent' even if they aren't in a view. A drawing is itself a view in UG.

1. Export specific view as CGM. (This creates a view of lines, without associations to a model).
2. Import the CGM to a sheet in drafting.
3. Export that sheet as a part.
4. Import that part into any sheet I wish. This provides for greater flexibility by allowing me to scale not only the lines but the text and dimensions as well. It also allows me to import to any sheet I wish and place the view anywhere I need it.
Thanks for your responses!
