The standard views that generally begin a drawing are:
Contents
Model View creates a single view based on a predefined view orientation. The Model View PropertyManager appears when you create a new drawing, or when you insert a model view into a drawing document.
You can create an exploded drawing view from an existing exploded assembly view. The actual view is a model view, usually in the isometric orientation.
Use the Model Break View tool to create configuration-based 3D break views (also known as interrupted views) of a model for individual drawing views.
You can use predefined views like named views to preselect an orientation, position, and scale for views on a drawing template. You can add the model or assembly reference later using Insert Model in the PropertyManager.
The Named View dialog box appears when you click New View in the Orientation dialog box.
