an auxiliary view that is projected perpendicular from an edge of another

The Options Form allows 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 the view is created.
Base View - Select the layout view to project.
Line - Select a line defining the auxiliary view plane.
Location
- Select a point to locate the view.

The Offset and Arrow Start/End options refer to the auxiliary view arrows. These options are only active when "Display auxiliary view arrows" on the 2D Tab of the VX Configuration Form is enabled. The style of the arrows is determined by the drawing standard selected on the same tab of the form.
Offset - This option defines the distance between the line defining the view plane and the auxiliary view arrows. A negative value will cause the view arrows to flip.
Arrow Start/End - The default location of the view arrows is the end points of the line defining the view plane. These options may be used to adjust the location.
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.
