    2. Select the view boundary and choose the right-hand mouse button option View Dependent
    Edit;
    a. In Add Edits select Edit Entire Objects;
    b. In the Wireframe Edits set Line Fonts to
    Dashed. (Optional: Set the Line Color.)
    c.

    Select Apply;

    d. Select the hidden lines that are to remain visible;

    e. OK, OK.

    3. Select the view boundary and then choose the right-hand mouse button option Style
    (Settings in NX9). On the Hidden Lines tab, enable the option Referenced Edges Only,
    and select OK. Only the selected hidden lines are now visible.

    4. The view can then be annotated as required;
