15 If you selected to create a detail with a section/elevation, specify the insertion point of the 2D
section/elevation result.
16 If you selected to create a detail without a section/elevation, specify the extents of the model space view
containing the area being detailed.
The extents of the model space view will dictate the default sheet view size, so if the model space boundary
is too small, you may have problems placing annotations in it.
Once the model space view has been placed in the drawing, the field placeholders in the callout change
to a question mark. To resolve them, the model space view needs to be placed onto a sheet, as described
in “
Resolving Fields in Callout Symbols ” on page 2013.
17 To display the model space view in the Project Navigator, navigate to the target drawing, and expand it.
The model space view is listed under the drawing.
For information on opening the model space view, see “ Opening a Model Space View ” on page 2012.
Creating a Detail in a New Drawing
Use this procedure to place a callout that creates a detail in a new project view drawing.
You can place each detail in its own detail drawing. The Detail View template set in the project is used to create the
new drawing. For more information, see “
Creating a New Project ” on page 174.
When you create a new drawing for a detail, it contains by default the same constructs, levels, and divisions as the
drawing from which the detail is taken. You can change that assignment, if necessary.
