Dividing a View Across Multiple Sheets
Sometimes a large view does not fit on a single sheet. In this case, you must create multiple sheets for the
view, divide the view into parts, and show one part on each sheet. Or perhaps a view is too tall or wide for
a sheet, and you want to show parts of the view next to each other on the same sheet.
To address these issues, use dependent views as follows.
To divide a view across multiple sheets
1 In a project, create and prepare the view that you want to divide into parts.
Add all annotations, details, dimensions, and other information required. See Project Views on
page 79, Annotating and Detailing on page 1027, and Dimensions on page 213.
2 Create duplicate dependent views.
See Creating Dependent Views on page 146.
■ In each dependent view, use crop regions to show the part of the model to display in that
view, and the annotations to include. If any unwanted annotations or model elements display
in a dependent view, right-click the element, and click Hide in view
➤
Elements.
■ In the primary view, add matchlines to indicate where the view is split.
See
Adding Matchlines for Dependent Views on page 147.
3 Create the sheets on which to place the dependent views.
See Adding a Sheet on page 970.
4 Add the dependent views to their respective sheets.
See Adding Views to a Sheet on page 971.
5 (Optional) Add view references to the primary view.
View references indicate the sheet on which each dependent view displays. For instructions, see
Navigating Primary and Dependent Views on page 148.
