Model Documentation
It´s never been easier to go from
your 3D models to 2D documentation.
You´ll even find that if you
modify the 3D model – the 2D documentation
will update as well!
The new model documentation
commands are found in the Drawing
View panel of the Annotate ribbon
tab.
Start with base View to automatically
display a scaled preview of
the model attached to the cursor.
Specify options such as type, orientation
and scale.
Create projected views from the
Base view (as long as the Type option
was set to Base and Projected)
by dragging the cursor to the desired
location. AutoCAD automatically
creates the appropriate view.
Modify properties for a selected
drawing view the Properties palette.
Easily modify drawing views from
the contextual ribbon tab by doubleclicking
on a view.
NOTE Projected views become the
child in a parent/child relationship
and inherit the parent properties
and edits.
TIP Use the multifunctional grip at
the center of each view to stretch or
rotate a view – or break and repair
alignment.
