Like AutoCAD named views, Inventor models contain named view
representations. However, unlike AutoCAD, Inventor models have several types
of view representations, which you can mix and match. While creating base
views, you must specify which of these view representations you are creating
the base view for. The view representation types are:
Design view representations
A design view representation is a display configuration that you can recall by
name. Design views control component visibility and material overrides,
usually to present an uncluttered view of the components you intend to show
in that view.
When you create a base view, you must specify which design view
representation you are creating it for.
Positional representations
A positional representation is one snapshot in a collection of snapshots that
show an assembly in various positions. You can access each positional
representation by name.
When you create a base view, you must specify which design view
representation you are creating it for.
