Detail View Editor Contextual Ribbon Tab

Representation Panel

This panel is visible only when you are editing a detail view created from an Inventor model. The options you can view and edit depend on the properties of the selected model. You can only edit the values for Design View.

Boundary Panel

Circular

Specifies that a circular boundary is used to create the detail view. This is the default boundary type.

If Infer Constraint is on, the center of the circular detail boundary is associated to a point on the parent view. If Infer Constraint is off, the center of the circular detail boundary is not associated to a point on the parent view.

Rectangular

Specifies that a rectangular boundary is used to create the detail view.

If Infer Constraint is on, the corner of the rectangular detail boundary is associated to a point on the parent view. If Infer Constraint is off, the corner of the rectangular detail boundary will not be associated to a point on the parent view.

Model Edge Panel

Smooth

Specifies that the edge of the detail view model is smooth.

Smooth with Border

Specifies that the edge of the detail view model is smooth with a circular or rectangular border, depending on the detail boundary type selected.

Smooth with Connection Line

Specifies that the edge of the detail view model is smooth, with a border, and connection line between the detail view and the detail boundary in the parent view.

Jagged

There is no border for the detail view and no connection line between the detail view and the detail boundary in the parent view.

Annotation Panel
