How Do I export a Naviswork's Models Grid Lines????

I wrongly assumed this would be more simple then it actually seems to be.

 

I have a very complex Model Sent to me in .nwc file format.  It contains the gridlines (in addition to the entire model) for all the buildings and areas interlinked. 

 

I need to export this to AutoCAD or Tekla, (Not the model... JUST the grid lines)

 

I simply need the grid lines.  However, when I convert it, I no longer have the gridlines in the converted model.

 

Please let me know how I copy the grid lines from a Navisworks .nwc file to ideally an AutoCAD dwg file.

 

The only available file containing all the grid lines is that single .nwc file.

 

Thanks in advance

For future reference, the grid lines are generated when someone exports a Revit Model. I have not heard of anyone trying to export the grids only. If you do need the grids, you could always export a Revit View with the grids.

Grid are used in a lot of other programms too, and they are even described and exchanged in IFC files. It would be nice if we could echange grids between appications using IFC or a neutral XML format.

Below in my signature you can find a link to provide feedback. They do look at requests and keep a log. I have personally received multiple follow up emails for requests I have placed.

From Revit export grid lines in dwg directly, you can now import this in any model:)
