is this a good practice to use boundary option in drawing
is this a good practice to use boundary option in drawing
(OP)
suppose i have a long rod, but i am only interested in the sharp tip , so i use boundary option to hide the remaining body of the rod
i know that detail view can give similar result, but since i want to have the base view and projected view aligned together, that's why i use boundary option to hide the remaining body.
is this a good practice? any alternative?
thanks

The easiest fix....errrr.....ENHANCEMENT (in my opinion) would be to add a dropdown listbox to add additional breaks, similar to that of the Variable Radius points, Leader Terminating Objects, etc.

Note that I've brought this to the attention of the Drafting Product Managers and have asked them whether there are any plans to allows a second 'Single-Sided' break to be added to a view, which can be set to an arbitrary angle, as you can do with the first 'Single-Sided' broken view, and not limit this view to only a Perpendicular or Parallel orientation relative to the first 'Single-Sided' break.
May I suggest that you contact GTAC and have them open an IR/PR asking for this enhancement, which would help give credence to my request that there is a need for something like this in NX.
