Quick Tip – 6 Ways to Modify Views in Drawings

Tips & Tricks

Accurately adding dimensions to a drawing sometimes takes some extra work.

For example, if you have a long model and you don’t want to scale it down, try cutting out the middle using the break command. Next, a breakout removes a defined area of material to remove obscure areas in view. Some additional drawing modification features to help you create your drawings would include slice, crop, and break alignment. Learn all this and more below.

These 6 tips for modifying drawing views in Autodesk Inventor will help you handle any drawing you come up against.
