Using Assembly Scenes In Drafting

Using Assembly Scenes In Drafting

Using Assembly Scenes In Drafting

(OP)
Hi All,

Is there a way to use "scenes" created in assemblies in drafting? Some people lock views in drafting but I don't like the idea of possibly having non current views.

I have heard overload properties in drafting should help but I don't understand how it works. Any tips?

Yes.  When creating the view, pick the Scene from the Tree before selecting any geometry on the screen.

RE: Using Assembly Scenes In Drafting

Hi all,
Scenes are usefull on drawing, I use it to show diffrent states of a suspension assembly. The only problem I find is that you can not, or I did not find the way so far, add a new part in an already created scene. I think replace work, but if you have no part to replace, nothing can be done.
Have anyone found a trick to add a part in an already created scene and the dwg will update ?
