Workflow for Creating Associative Drawings from 3D Models


You can generate drawings from 3D models, which are associative to the model they were generated from. The model can be a model space 3D solid or surface, or an Autodesk Inventor 3D model.

The basic building block of a drawing is a drawing view.

Set Defaults for Drawing Views from 3D Models Customize the default settings for drawing views. To ensure that drawing views follow the correct drafting standards, you customize the default settings using the Drafting Standards dialog box. The settings you specify impact all new drawing views you create. They have no effect on any existing drawing view. The Drafting Standards dialog box displays when you run the VIEWSTD command. Using this dialog box you can control:

The projection type The ISO standard uses first angle projection. The ANSI standard uses third angle projection. You select the projection angle corresponding to the drafting standard the drawing must comply with.

Create Base Views from 3D Models


Workflow for creating base views for AutoCAD 3D models and Inventor models. The first drawing view you place in a layout is a base view. Base views define the scale, display settings, and alignment for subsequent views. The base view creation process begins when you click the Base View button on the Ribbon, from a layout. The process of selecting the source 3D model differs depending on whether the source is an AutoCAD 3D model or an Inventor model. Once the 3D model to use is determined, the following takes place:

The Drawing View Creation contextual ribbon tab is displayed (if the ribbon is on). A scaled preview of the model appears on the cross hairs. The command line prompts you to place the base view in model space.

All the options that are available on the Drawing View Creation contextual ribbon tab are available on the command line as well. The purpose of the command line is to assist you

when the ribbon is turned off. However, if the ribbon is turned on, we recommend that you use the ribbon. This because the ribbon hides options or makes them unavailable depending on its relevancy to the selected model. The command line, on the other hand, displays all options, even the options that do not apply to the selected model. The command does not exit as soon as you place the base view in the drawing area. You can continue to change option settings until you click the OK button on the ribbon. A typical use of this capability is described below. You place the base view in the drawing and you realize that the view is too large. You then use the Scale option on the ribbon and change the scale. Once you change the scale, you find that the view is not positioned correctly. You then use the Move command on the ribbon to move the view. Once you are done you click OK on the ribbon. By default, the program prompts you to create projected views soon after you are done with the base view. However, if the model you are creating is large, creating base views and projected views in the same command session can take time. In such a scenario, you can use the Type command line option and specify that you are creating only a base view.

Create Projected Views from Existing Drawing Views


Workflow for creating projected views from existing views. A projected view is an orthographic or isometric projection of an existing base view or projected view. The VIEWPROJ command prompts you to select an existing view as a parent view. Any existing view can be selected, as long as it is not out-of-date or unresolved. The projected view inherits all its properties from the parent, including the projection angle (first angle or third angle). You can change some of the properties after you create the projected view. Once you select the parent view, a preview of the projected view is attached to the cursor. The orientation of a projected view depends on its location in relation to the parent view. The preview updates dynamically, to reflect the orientation, as you move the cursor.

Update Drawing Views when Source 3D Models Change


Workflow to make out-of-date drawings current. While you work on a drawing containing drawing views, the program periodically checks whether the referenced 3D source model has changed. If the source has changed, a balloon message displays next to the drawing views status bar icon in the lower right of the application window. Click the link in the balloon message to update all out-of-date views. If you close the balloon without updating the views, a warning badge is attached to the drawing view status bar icon. Furthermore, AutoCAD highlights out-of-date drawing views by placing red markers on the corners of the view border. You update an out-ofdate view by right-clicking it and selecting Update from the menu. Alternatively, you can use the Update View command (or use the Update All Views command to update all outof-date views) from the drawing views ribbon panel.

Unlike Xrefs, drawing views do not update automatically when you open a drawing. You must explicitly invoke the AMVIEWUPDATE command to update drawing views. Depending on the change in the source model, the view may grow or shrink. There are two ways by which you can anchor a view in the drawing.

Work Around Common Problems


Empty Drawing Views The VIEWBASE and VIEWPROJ commands do not allow the creation of empty drawing views. However, erasing the source geometry from model space or from the referenced Inventor model results in empty drawing views. An empty drawing view is displayed as a 50 mm square. Its border is visible and is drawn in red. Out-of-Date Inventor Models An Inventor models can go out-of-date when changes are made directly to parts referenced by the model. This problem usually occur when parts are referenced in multiple assemblies. The program does not prevent you from creating or editing drawing views derived from out-of-date Inventor models. It however displays a warning message so that you are aware that the drawing views do not show the latest changes made to the source. To ensure that the drawing views show the latest changes, use Autodesk Inventor to update the out-of-date Inventor model. Unresolved Inventor File References When files referenced by an Inventor model are not found automatically, drawing views derived from this model are said to contain unresolved file references. A drawing view can contain unresolved file references for any of the following reasons. a. Paths to referenced files are not specified in the active project. b. The referenced files were renamed, moved, or deleted, and no longer exists within any of the storage locations defined by the active project. c. AutoCAD is pointing to the wrong active project file, or has not selected any project file as the active project file.
