converting .idw to .dwg

[Anonymous]

When I convert my .idw from inventor to a .dwg for autocad my hidden lines become solid lines, how can I fix that to keep them as hidden lines?

[Anonymous]

I understand how to convert the files. What I am asking is why when I convert the files do the hidden lines and center lines become solid lines in the autocad .dwg file?

Can you share the file?

Not sure if Im doing this right but attached should be both the autocad file and the inventor file.

Here the conversion is ok

:

Can you see if your styles is this way?

Make sure that the "Hidden (ANSI)" in set dashed.

One workaround is: You can change the layer Hidden in AutoCAD

Here is how it shows up for me and the machine shop that we use... My other designers dont have autocad just inventor so they cant by pass it by changing it in autocad..

Yeah. I oppened you archive here and it is like your picture (without the dashed linies). Have you checked the styles in Inventor?
