    Creating views

    To create a view drawing:

    1. Create or open a drawing.
    2. Click Draft tab > View panel, and choose from:
      • Single
      • Relative
      • Limited
      • Section
      • Section with Background
      • OLE
    3. You can also select drawing views using the Select Drawing View dialog.
    Note: You can improve the quality and speed of hidden line views if you create a solid of your model where possible before drafting from it. This will also improve the accuracy of dimensioning. For further details, see Creating a primitive solid.
