Once each view block for a part size has been assigned, you should verify that the part display is correct for each view. When view blocks are generated, you add your part to a drawing based on the AutoCAD MEP 2026 toolset template, and scroll through the layout tabs to verify that the display of the part is correct. However, if you created the view blocks from scratch and saved them as individual AutoCAD® blocks, you use a different method to verify the display of the view blocks. Using the SW Isometric view, insert each view block at an insertion point of 0,0,0 in the WCS. Each view block should align to the respective side of the model block as follows:
The… | aligns with the… | in the… |
---|---|---|
top view block | top side of the model block | XY plane. |
bottom view block | bottom side of the model block | XY plane. |
front view block | front side of the model block | XZ plane. |
back view block | back side of the model block | XZ plane. |
left view block | left side of the model block | YZ plane. |
right view block | right side of the model block | YZ plane. |
