Good morning, I downloaded from the network a dwg of a bus in 3d, consisting of polyhedra mesh and 3d faces.
the problem is that I would like to see in the printing phase (previously hidden) only the true silhouette, without seeing all lines of faces and mesh. You know how to suggest me?
 
hi joe, could you upload the file you're talking about so that it can better understand the problem? is it a true 3d or a simulated 3d (as it was 20 years ago)?
 
ok, it is a mesh exploded (or similar), you should recalculate it with autocad solids, otherwise it is practically unusable, the operation is quite simple if you know how to use the 3d, I tried to open it also with other sw but the result is that it is always seen as a 2d
 
All right, thank you, but what do you mean by recalculating it? If I give a thickness to all 3d faces and turn polyhedral mesh into a surface and then I also give it a thickness, I do not think you solve the problem that I have exposed you; in fact giving a thickness to all the resulting surfaces, precisely because they are so many surfaces united, the diagonals will be seen equally in the "previous" printing mode
 
I mean to recreate the geometries by exploiting what you have as references, for example you could make the commes with a cylinder and extrude it "recovering" the broken lines, the operation is a little long, but I don't think you can do much more, unfortunately a thick mesh does not allow you to get a unique face (if there is the way I do not know it), so in the press you will always see the different segments that delimitate.
 
the file I posted it and I know it is a 3d. print a 3d with the "previous" shading option allows not to display diagonal notes, of a mesh for example, which make up the profile; the problem in question is precisely this: a solution, for this design to eliminate the diagonals in the printing phase with hidden lines. it seems that there is no solution
