view from 3D

[johnab]

It may be the easy question but can someone explain how to use command "view from 3D" under Catia v5 drafting mode?

Its been a long time since I used V5 so step by step will be helpful.

When U use Wiev/Annotations planes, annotation etc. in 3D, this is the feature to brng them onto the drawing. This in done by picking the view in the graph or 3D.

Another question about View from 3d.

I have a model that contains only wireframe geometry. I can create a view from 3d which contains all the appropriate wireframe geometry, however I lose all of the graphic properties associated with each element.

Example, a curve in the 3d model is thick and dashed. When I make the view from 3d, the curve appears with the default thickness and solid.

How can I keep the 3d graphic properties for an element on a view from 3d?

Thanks.

Using v5r16

Check the view properties and make sure the 3D SPEC and 3D COLOR options are turned on

Thanks Jack. Both of those options are on. My speculation is that only color will be transferred onto a drawing from 3D, not linetypes and thicknesses.

I thought they fixed that in R15 or R16 ?
