Why does Hyperworks2020 write out underscores before a "name" in a *surface definition?  ie, 

*Surface, NAME = surf_df_tz, TYPE = ELEMENT
_surf_df_tz_S1,S1

I dont recall it being present in older versions of Hypermesh or perhaps I am mistaken.

 Can it be avoided?

    HyperWorks 2020 (Abaqus) profile follows how Abaqus CAE 2020 format now. In the release of HW2021, there will be an option to write it out w/o the _ symbol.
