perspective views

[Erik Buijs]

I am making a layout with a number of 2D details but also some 3D elements. How can I get more than one perspective view on my drawing? Are the saved views interchangeable with other drawings?

Hi, Erik

You can get more than one perspective on a drawing sheet by using layer links. Create a new, empty layer for each perspective you want. Under the "View" menu you'll choose "Create Layer Link", and select the layer(s) you want in that perspective. Then create the view you want. If you want to move the image, select it, go to "Edit" -> "Unlock", and you'll be able to drag it around. In layer setup, you can change which layers are visible, and also change their scales. You can have a layer link layer which is a different scale than the original layer. Make sure you save a sheet view with the setup you want. I don't think that the sheet views are interchangable with other drawings (I assume you mean between files?)

Thank you Kristen, I'll give it a try!
