Next, you set up the drawing for plotting. Instead of using numeric dimen-
sions to annotate five separate parts, you define views for one part and
annotate the drawing, using active part design variables and equations.
You paste into the drawing a copy of your spreadsheet that lists the values
of those variables for each part version.
First, create drawing views to display the part.
Creating Drawing Views
The first view you create is the base view. You define the plane to orient your
view using a part face or work feature, and then position the view in Drawing
mode.
Because you are creating a generic view to represent all versions of the part,
you use the 57 version, which contains the brace. When you import the
table, it will indicate the versions for which the brace is suppressed.
