Dynamic Views Workflow 2

In this example, you have a have a 3D design model, and you want to create a clip volume of the design, then create a saved view of the clip volume, attach the saved view to a drawing model, and then attach the drawing model to a sheet model. You may then want to print or publish as an i-model.

To know more about dynamic views and drawing composition stages, see Dynamic Views.

Using Dynamic Views Manually, Workflow 2

Create a clip volume using the Apply Clip Volume tool.
In the Saved Views dialog, create a saved view of the clip volume.
In the Models dialog, create and open a drawing model.
From the References dialog, attach the saved view as a reference into the drawing model.
In the Models dialog, create and open a sheet model.
From the References dialog, attach the drawing model as a reference into the sheet model.
Print or publish an i-model.

Now you can use the Create Drawing dialog to automate workflow #2.
