Provides control over the view boundary in an existing
drawing view. Set the type of boundary (rectangular
or circular) and specify crop boundaries.

Produces a zero-depth section from an existing drawing
view. The Slice operation is performed in a selected
target view.

Base Views
The first view in a new drawing is a base view. Use the Base View button on
the Drawing Views panel bar to create additional base views as needed.
Projected Views
After you create a base view, you can create projected views with a first-angle
or third-angle projection, depending on the active drafting standard. Projected
views can be orthographic or isometric. You can create multiple views with a
single activation of the tool.
Orthographic projections are aligned to the base view and inherit scale and
display settings. If the base view is moved, view alignment is maintained. If
the scale of the base view is modified, the scale of the projected view changes.
NOTE Isometric projections are not aligned to the base view. They default to the
same scale as the base view, but do not update if you change the scale of the base
view.
The position of the cursor relative to the base view determines the orientation
of the projected view. A view preview is displayed as you move the cursor.
Click a point on the sheet to place the view. You can continue to place views
until you right-click, and then select Create.
Editing Views
After you create a view, you can edit it. If the view is a base view, changes to
the view parameters are reflected in the dependent views. You can remove
the association between dependent views and base views by editing the
dependent view. Then set independent scale, style, and alignment for the
derived views.
