Create Detail View
Detail View is an enlarged view of a specific portion of a component. The view is used to show closer details of a component.
Important: Detail views are per snapshot based. A detail view in a snapshot cannot be turned on in another snapshot. Detail views do not have any browser representation like other annotations.
Detail View Model Appearance
When a detail view is created, the current snapshot is linked to the detail view and becomes the detail view's parent snapshot. To edit a detail view so that you can change its model appearance or add annotations, double-click the detail view. The changes made to the detail view snapshot are not reflected in the parent snapshot. Click Return on the ribbon to switch to the parent snapshot in which the detail view is added.
Note: When the scope edit of a snapshot is set to All snapshots in the document, the detail view snapshot changes as well.

Detail View Style
There are various parameters that controls the style of each detail view.
Detail View Style Options:
- Arrowhead - Sets the arrowhead type for the leader. Arrowhead option is not available for the cone leader type.
- Fill - Selects a background color for the detail view. The default is no fill.
- Outline - Sets the color and width for the detail view border and the leader border.
- Shape - Selects the shape of the detail view. The detail view is cropped to match the shape.
- Leader - Selects from four different leader styles. Selecting the "None" option does not apply any leader to the view.
- Scale - Selects a multiplier factor for the detail view . Default scale is 2X.
- Sync - Updates the detail view to reflect any change made to the leader end point. Clicking Sync discards all changes made to the linked snapshot.
- Lock Focal - Moving the detail view leader end point to another location updates the detail view.
- Associate - Automatically updates the detail view when the position of the leader end point is changed or the area the leader end pint is located is updated. Lock Focal must be checked to ensure Associate work when you move the leader end point.
- Style - Provides a list of preset detail view styles.
- Lock Aspect Ratio - The detail view maintains the aspect ratio on an image resize.
- Keep on Top - The detail view always stays in the foreground..
- Pin to screen - This option pins the detail view in 2D space. Component rotation does not affect the position of the detail view.
Note: Lock Focal and Associate options are turned ON by default. This ensures that the linked snapshot and current detail view snapshot are always in sync.
