Hi,

I am working on some cable drawings and have cut and pasted in a fair amount of reference geometry. However, these entities always end up associated to some view in the drawing. I wanted to disassociate the entities from this view. So, i can move the view, and not have all my sketched entities move with it. Anyone know how to do this in SWX04 drawings? thanks!

RMB the sheet away from any view & select Lock sheet focus ... place your sketches then Unlock sheet focus[b/]. If sketches are already placed use cut & paste to move them.

I would look at putting your reference geometry in an "Empty View". Then you can move /scale it independently. I've done this for wiring diagrams and schematics.
