Through-holes not showing up in side of drawing CATIA

Through-holes not showing up in side of drawing CATIA

(OP)



Hello,
I've started using Catia quite recently. I've made a part that I would like to dimension in 2D drafting, but the holes that I have made are not showing on the side of my part. They're supposed to be 0.5'' holes, but it looks like they're just on the surface because I see no depth when looking at it from the front or the right view.

Can anyone help me? I would appreciate any help!

Thank you!

Eric's post will be your solution.

Additionally, you have 3 Front views, make one view from 3d then project new views from that view. Your views will then be aligned and have more appropriate names.

@rickyt,
Unfortunately, I believe I drew my top view on the wrong plane or something because it ends up labeling it as a front view instead. Is there any way I can change the planes so that it thinks that my 'front view' is actually my top view and so on? Sorry if I sound confusing..
