Label . Type text to be displayed with both the parent view and the auxiliary view. Specify the label display in Tools, Options, Document Properties, View Labels.

Flip direction. Changes the direction of the view arrow.

Options

Annotation view(s). Select an annotation view (if the model was created with annotation views) so the detail view will include annotations from the parent view.

Display State

For assemblies only. Select a display state of the assembly to place in the drawing.

The hide/show display state is supported by all display styles. Other display states (display mode , color , etc.) are supported by Shaded with Edges and Shaded modes only.

Display Style

Use parent style. Clear to select style and quality settings different from those of the parent view.

Click a display style.

Select High quality or Draft quality to set the display quality of the model. This is available only when Display quality for new views is set to Draft quality. If you select High quality, these options do not appear again.

Scale

Select a scale for the drawing view.

Dimension Type

Select Projected or True dimensions.

Cosmetic Thread Display

The following settings override the Cosmetic thread display option in Tools, Options, Document Properties, Detailing, if there are cosmetic threads in the drawing view.

High quality. Displays precise line fonts and trimming in cosmetic threads. If a cosmetic thread is only partially visible, High quality shows only the visible portion (it shows precisely what is visible and what is invisible.)

System performance is slower with High quality cosmetic threads. It is recommended that you clear this option until you finish placing all annotations.

Draft quality. Displays cosmetic threads with less detail. If a cosmetic thread is only partially visible, Draft quality shows the entire feature.

More Properties

After you create a view or select an existing view, click More Properties to open the Drawing View Properties dialog box where you can change bill of materials information, show hidden edges, and so on.
