NX Projected views-controlling view of projection by Angle

(OP)
Hi all,

I have a rectangular block with one edge chiseled off (angle controlled by expressions). I am creating a projected view which must be perpendicular to the chisel angle at all times. If i do following on projected view right click->Settings->Common->Angle i can change angles manually , but i wish to do it automatically during the drawing update.can anyone suggest a method to link this angle to an attribute/expression or any way so that no need to do it manually.

NX Native Version 9.0.3.4 MP6

Thanks ,
Vipin

RE: NX Projected views-controlling view of projection by Angle

Yes, that works when using the 'Add Projected View' function using the Inferred 'Vector Option' with the 'Associative' option toggled ON and then just position the projected view until the projection angle snaps to the angled face, as shown in the attached video clip.
