I have a part that I created a design table for with a default size and three other modified sizes. I was wondering if there is a way to insert three default front views into a drawing, and then utilize the design table to create the other sizes that I need. The way that I did it was to double click the size I wanted in the Configuration tab of the part, and the did a "Save As" and just saved three different instances of the part, then inserted them into the drawing one by one. I really hope this doesn't confuse anybody, and any help would be very appreciated.

Thank You
Charles

Recommended for you

1) Place multiple copies of the same view by simply repeating the process used to place the first view.
or
2) After placing one front view, highlight it & do a CTRL+C (or Edit > Copy), then click on an open space in the drawing & do a CTRL+V (or Edit > Paste). Repeat as required.

To change the config, RMB on a view & select Properties, then from the Use named configuration dropdown, select the config you want & click OK.
