Project View At Angle?

Project View At Angle?

Project View At Angle?

(OP)
Hi,

  I'm creating a drawing & seeking a way to project a view at an angle or to rotate the view to desired angle.

  My part has a face that's at an angle.  I want to get a planner view of it & need to rotate it CC or CCW degrees.

 How is this done?

Thanks

If I get it right, you must make your own wiew in wiew menager and save it, than redefine it as you wish,(rmb, redefine) give new references and turn it in position that you want.

Hi Damirko,

  I was kind of thinking of the same thing, except the way I'm doing this is not quite working.

  I made my project planner view, but I'm also trying to 'Add Arrows' as if it was a real projected view.  This part is not working for me.

  What's 'rmb'?  

  Forgot to mention that I'm new to ProE 4.0, if this makes a difference.

Thanks

You can insert an auxiliary drawing view that should do what you want.  You will need a straight edge or datum in the parent view to define the auxiliary view projection.  Then you can add the arrows to the parent view.

To add to dgallops solution.
There is no RMB button for insert auxillary view. You have to use the drop down.
After 7 years of doing it the hard way, I just recently realized there's a drop down for it. I was inserting a general view, then changing it to an auxillary view, and slecting the angled surface i wanted to projected from.
