Hello,
We recently just upgraded from 1899 to 1953. In the 1953 Drafting environment, I am trying to create a break out view using the active sketch view command. Typically I like to use a spline to create a shape around the part I'd like to break out as its usually one entity to select and i personally like the look of the section cut. Now when I make a spline in the active sketch, it seemingly disappears as soon as its created, but it actually snaps to the lower left corner of the drawing sheet. So far the spline is the only sketch object that does this. I can draw circles, rectangles, lines, and they all stay put over the active view. Any ideas as to why the spline now snaps to the lower left of the drawing sheet? Thanks in advance?
 
Can you tell us how you solved it ?

In the Studio Spline dialog box, about mid way down, are three options for Movement, I selected View, and the spline stayed with the view. WCS was the default selection.
