Have a file where the Elevations are composed of Model objects from the design in A Viewport on a Sheet Layer in combination with Annotation 2d graphic objects. These objects include Poly's with hatches etc. Now we need to export to another Architect who does all their work 2d. When we export, the whole model, as well as the Paper space for is exported. They then have to change these ACADD Viewports view mode to Hidden to generate the correct image. We are exporting with Fills and Hatch only and only exporting Visible objects to the ACADD 2005 format. The question, is there a method by which you can only export the Sheet Layer only having all the objects converted to 2d ONLY and also processing the Viewport in its Hidden Line state? This way they can work in a familiar 2d way while we continue to work with the Modeling. The only other method we can think of at the moment is to do a save as of the original file. Convert the Viewport to a group, then copy this to another files vacant design layer, then export this file. All very time consuming.
