Insert Standard View
Insert
3D View (Drawing Sheet Level)
Use this command to create a standard orthographic
layout view from a 3D part. If the part has named views created using
the View
Manager, they can also be inserted as a standard view.
The optional attributes allow you to override the default view attributes defined in the View Attributes Form. Use the Edit 3D View Attributes command to change the view attributes after a view is created.

File/Part - The drop-down list contains the VX files currently opened by the active session. The active file is selected by default. You can select another file from the list or pick the folder icon to select another file using the File Browser. The list contains the parts in the selected file. Select a part to layout.
Preview - Setting the preview mode to Graphics or Attributes will display the selected part in the preview window or the part's attributes in the Part Attributes Form. These options are similar to the Object Browser and the Root Object Browser.
View - Enter the name of the view or select a view from the drop-down list. If the selected part contains named views (created with the View Manager.), they will also listed for selection. Layer visibility is maintained if it is stored with the named view.
Location - Select the view location.
General, Label, Line Attributes - See View Attributes Form for a description of each attribute.
File/Bundle - See Attribute Bundles and Form Commonalities.
Other Options - See Command Options Forms for additional options not listed here.
Origin - Use this option to select from the list of alternate datums from the 3D part. The origin of the selected datum is used instead of the part's world origin (0,0,0). For example, if you select a datum attached to the part and move the part in 3D, then the view of the part will not move on the drawing. The Location point for the view corresponds to the origin of the datum onto the view plane. You should also provide descriptive names for your datums that help define their position.
Config - This option allows you to specify an assembly configuration to use for the layout. Select a configuration from the list. Configurations have to exist in the assembly before this option is available.
State - Use this option to create a view based on a certain state in the history defined by a Backup Feature. Select from the list of Back Features.
