Possibility for associativity between elements in different views in interactive drafting mode

Possibility for associativity between elements in different views in interactive drafting mode

Possibility for associativity between elements in different views in interactive drafting mode

(OP)
Hi Guys,
I was trying to create a drawing through interactive drafting (without any 3D Model) but I found that unlike generative drafting there was no link between the elements in 2 different views (for eg. Front View and Top View). If I change a dimension in Front View, the corresponding element in Top View does not get updated. Please let me know how can I establish such a link between the two views in interactive drafting mode. Looking forward for your reply. Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Muthu

i don't think this will work.

That would require fully dimensioning the elements in both (or all) views and editing the formula for the secondary dimensions to get its value from the primary dimensions. The would not be establishing the link between the two views, just between dimensions, which happen to be in two (or more) views.

Maybe Draftsight ?
