Format Sheets
You can create a sheet with a predefined layout of border, title block, and
views by using a sheet format from Drawing Resources ➤ Sheet Formats.
Right-click the sheet resource, and then select New Sheet. The format
corresponds to a standard sheet size with an appropriate title block and border.
If the format you choose contains one or more views, the Select Component
dialog box is displayed when you create a sheet. Use the Browse button to
specify the model to document. Default views of the model are then created
automatically.
Sketch Overlays
You can create a sketch overlay sheet to add graphics or text to your drawing
without affecting drawing views. You can redline a drawing, for example, by
working on the sketch overlay.
Drawing Borders
The Default Border is parametric. It automatically adjusts its size and labeling
if the sheet is resized. When you insert a border, the Default Drawing Border
Parameters dialog box is displayed. The default setting for the number of
horizontal and vertical zones depends on the current sheet size.
Click the More button to modify the text, zone layout, and sheet margins.
