General practices for detailing or "touch-up" elevations


Recommended Posts

I can't figure out how to draft on an elevation view. If I create a viewport of the model view, looking at it from a side, it looks pretty good on the sheet with the hidden-line option. But, I'd like to add some texture and hatches and details on top of what's there. I'd also like to cover up some areas that weren't completely resolved in the model.

I've used revit, and found you can draft in any view with "detail-lines". I suppose these are like screen plane elements? But, I can't create screen plane elements in these model views, apparently.

I thought I could "annotate the drawing view, but the wireframe model during annotation makes it very difficult to see what I am drawing on top of.

Sorry this might be a very simple concept I'm just not getting.
