projecting views

(OP)
My views are not projecting per usual "glass box" projection and is very confusing.  Is there a way to fix that??

RE: projecting views

Actually the views do project correctly, it's a matter of understanding how SW interprets your selection of a "face" to project from.  We went through this initially, and it affects us a lot since we have all kinds of REALLY strange views and compound angles going on in our stuff.  The best thing to do is either make some simple play part examples and experiment or drag your VAR support guys down there to explain it to you (you're paying for support, use it).  It's not easy to explain without a demo.

RE: projecting views

Double-check whether you are using first-angle or third-angle projection if you are getting unexpected results.

My titleblocks include the traditional "trucated cone" symbol to make it clear which we are using.

All this machinery making modern music can still be open hearted.
