"Machine Ready" Sheet Metal Drawings

Brad_Goodman

When I finish a sheet metal object and insert it into a drawing as a "flat" sheet metal object - it contains all sort of stuff like text, dimensions, arrows, center annotations and fold lines I do NOT want my laser, plasma or water jet to see. I usually go in and delete all these manually, which is always tedious. Is there a way to automatically disable or delete these? Bonus points if I can keep the fold lines in a way that will uniquly identify them as such (i.e. a color,. grey or something)  - as sometimes I will have my machine score or mark them.

Try this and see if it gets you where you want. Also don't forget to update drawing templates once your satisfied.
1. drawing properties. Change bend line color.
2. view show hide menu. Hide auto centerlines and threads etc.

I very much wish there was a way to set up a drawing template to default to "machine ready" settings as per the original post here. Having to select each view to turn off threads, and then again to turn off center marks, and then again to turn of bendline/instructions is super cumbersome. I want to set up a DWT that defaults to clean DXF settings suitable for our waterjet.
