ViewDetail

Circular

Creates a circular boundary. (The Boundary option in the final prompt allows to switch the boundary to rectangular.)

Prompts you:

Select radius of detail view - Pick a point or type a value.

Rectangular

Creates a rectangular boundary. (The Boundary option in the final prompt allows to switch the boundary to circular.)

Prompts you:

Select radius of detail view - Pick a point or type a value.

Scale

By default the scale of the detail viewport is twice the parent viewport scale.

Prompts you:

Adjust view scale [Standard scales/Custom/Relative custom/Exit] <Standard scales>:

• Standard scales: choose a standard scale in the list.
  The scale list can be edited by the SCALELISTEDIT command.

• Custom: Allows to specify a custom scale factor.
  Prompts you:
  Enter scale <1.000000> - Enter a scale factor.

• Relative custom: Calculates the scale factor with respect to the scale of the source view.
  Prompts you:
  Enter scale <2.000000> - Enter a number.
  The scale factor of the source view is multiplied by this number.

Hidden Lines

Allows to control the display of hidden lines.

Prompts you:

Show hidden lines [Yes/No/from Parent]:

• Yes: Displays hidden lines.
  If the BM_Ortho_Hidden and BM_Isometric_Hidden layers are OFF or Frozen, hidden lines will not display.

• No: Hidden lines are suppressed.

• From Parent: Inherits the hidden line display from the parent view.

Tangent Lines

Allows to control the display of tangent edges between a flat and a curved face (e.g. a filleted edge).

Prompts you:

Show tangent lines [Yes/No]:

• Yes: Tangent lines display. This is the default setting.

• No: Tangent lines are suppressed.

Anchor

Allows to control how to position the detail view inside the viewport in an update operation, when the extents (= bounding box) of the 3D geometry has been changed.

Prompts you:

Anchor view on paper space? [Yes/No]:

• Yes: The center of the viewport is anchored. The size of the viewport grows or shrinks around its center point.

• No: The position of the unchanged geometry is fixed. This is the default behavior.

The AUTOVPFITTING system variable controls whether the size of the viewport is adjusted automatically to fit the current extents of the 3D geometry. By default AUTOVPFITTING = ON.

Annotation

Controls the annotation of the detail view .

Prompts you:

Select annotation [Identifier/Label]:

• Identifier: Prompts you to specify the view detail identifier:
  Specify the identifier <A>: Enter a name for the view detail.

• Label: Prompts you to display of the view detail label.
  Show view label [Yes/No]:

Boundary

Controls the boundary if the detail view : circular or rectangular.

Prompts you:

Detail boundary [Rectangular/Circular]: Choose an option.

Model Edge

Controls whether a connection line is drawn between the detail view and the detail boundary in the parent view.

Prompts you:

Model edge type [smooth with Border/smooth with Connection line]: Choose an option.
