About Creating a Model Space View Drawing From a Callout

In most cases, when you need a model space view containing a detail or a section/elevation, you will create it by using a callout tool. This method lets you specify whether the resulting model space view is placed in the view drawing you have created it from, in a different drawing, or in a new view drawing.

Note: You can still associate a callout symbol with the view later if you do not use a callout tool to create the model space view.

On the Views tab of the Project Navigator palette, general, detail, and section/elevation view drawings are distinguished by different symbols:

View Drawing Type Symbol
General view drawing
Detail view drawing
Section/Elevation view drawing
