Broken view problem
Broken view problem
(OP)
I have a assembly drawing of a long object where i use broken view. I need to be able to change the length of the assembly and get updated drawings but my broken views does no longer show the relevant section of the assembly. Can i make broken view stay on right place regardless of length?

Note the associativity, try pick some object that exists on all variants. ( do not select an object that only exists in the current variant.)

I have been trying to solve this with detail view but i dont know how to get a nice break line between the details.

RE: Broken view problem
When adding a break region its kind of difficult to get a nice, lets say rectangle, around the area. So i have been moving the boundary points to make it look nicer on the screen. There seems to be no problem before i move the boundary points.
Can you please try move the boundary points on your break region in your demo to make the straight lines perpendicular to each other and make a big change in total lenght to see if you get the same problem?

RE: Broken view problem
The view boundary will not plot or export to pdf, if it looks bad on the screen turn off the view boundary. ( Preferences - Drafting - View - Display Borders.
In case the view boundary matters, you can draw the boundary and use these curves for the region. Set the view to active sketch view and sketch around the area, remember to constrain relative the end of the shaft such that the sketch members move when the shaft length changes. Pick the endpoints of the sketch lines when defining the broken view area. ( - Should work...

Now that you made me aware of that the boundary does not plot its ok. Thanks for your help.
