Detailed Views?
Detailed Views?
(OP)
Hi,
I have created a detailed view that has a number of small features. I have run out of room for dimensions and would like to create a duplicate detailed view for additional dimensioning.
Is there a way to copy the detailed view or, is there a way to create another detail view without duplicating the "call-out" note and detail circle?
Ideally, I would like to have two identical detailed views and one call-out note.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

I think it’s easier to use two detailed views instead of one, and you’ll have also a link between your views and the 3D model.

Thanks for the reply.
I think you are right - just go with the two detail views and live with the two separate notes.....

You could layer off the 2nd callout note and create a new note to label the view the same as the first detail view. Just remember to relate that note to the new view.

Save your drawing under a new name. Then make merge your drawing with this new one. Move the detailed view in question to your desired place/page and make it general view. Then change it from "general view" to "projection" and click on the master view. In this way you'll have both views detailed linked to a general view instead of having one view and a one snapshot view. And all dimensions will be in the drawing!
Then erase the unwanted pages (the merge).
I think it will take you less time then snapshot and move.
Good luck.

I didn't think anyone would want to talk about drawing issues.
