When an orthographic steel order view in a drawings-by-rule drawing is based on a volume in the model, you can crop the view, and also resize the model volume to match the cropped view.
-
Select the view in SmartSketch Drawing Editor. Four handles display on the view frame, and the Modify View Ribbon displays.
-
Drag the handles to resize the view to the needed size.
-
To immediately update the view, select Update View.
-
Click Finish to save the cropped view and resize the parent volume in the model.
If Update View is not selected, the view is marked out-of-date in the Drawings View Explorer. You can right-click the view and select Update.
-
The 2D view and the 3D volume maintain the cropped size with subsequent updates.
-
Shell expansions are not based on a volume and cannot be cropped. See Create a shell expansion drawing in the Orthographic Drawings Help.
-
Section and Detail views use their own commands for cropping.
