How to get drawing oriented to a csys
How to get drawing oriented to a csys
(OP)
Howdie.
Was trying to get a drawing to automatically use a particular csys in the part, but can't seem to find out how to do it. I tried "drawing_view_origin_csys" but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Thanks for any replies!

I was hoping that there was just a simple "one-click" solution to tell the drawing to orient itself to a desired csys, but I guess PTC isn't there yet.
Thanks for responding.

You can create a Main View using a Part CSYS and selecting Z axis to point Front and Y-axis to point up or X to point Right if you want that orientation.

A little convoluted in PTC's convoluted way of doing things but that's exactly what I was trying to do.
Thanks for your help, Michael.
