Traditionally, with mirrored sheetmetal parts we've mirrored the part and then manually regenerated the drawing for the mirrored part in its entirety, which is time consuming.

I've been looking at simplifying this by just using the Solidworks drawing "mirror view" functionality as this can save hours redoing a sheetmetal drawing for the opposite handed version.

One issue I've come up with is that my layflat views work just fine, but when I come to save it as a DXF, a bunch of the curved line entities stay where they would be for the original view, not the opposite handed view.

See my images attached, there's both the original and opposite-handed views as displayed on the drawing sheet, and it displays fine. Now you can also see the mess I get when the opposite handed view is saved out to a DXF file.

Has anyone else seen this behaviour? I've had a play around with the export settings and can't seem to find a solution, and a quick google doesn't seem to have thrown up anyone else having this issue either.

Any bright ideas as to what I can try next?

Thanks!

George.
