Drawing Sketch contextual environment (Drawing workspace)

In the Sketch contextual environment, you can create and modify drawing sketches to add to sheets in the Drawing workspace in Fusion.

Templates

If you plan to reuse title blocks, borders, document settings, or sheet settings across multiple drawings, create a drawing template to save time and apply consistent standards. You can also create placeholder views and placeholder tables that automatically generate drawing views and part lists from the referenced design when you use the template to create a new drawing.
