CATIA V4 axis/views

[gackhd]

Hi all,
When I create a new axis system at a different origin other than axis 1, and with a rotation, and making it current, why is there no change in my views (top, left, right ect.). Do I have to create new views? And if so, how?
Can someone help me please.

Are you using Auxview, or Auxview 2 to create the views?

Did you update the views?

Are you talking about drafting views? or named views?

in order to have the right axis in your view, you need, when you create the front view, to select the axis in the spec tree then the plane/face for the projection.

this 'preselected' axis will be the BLUE axis of your view.

I do not know any way to change a view axis so...

recreate new views, and copy/past texts and dimensions...

have fun

As of R14, you can change the defining plane of the view. It's not automatic, but it works OK.
