About Propagating View Modifications

You can propagate view modifications to other views.

This topic provides more information about it.

Propagating View Modifications

The Synchronize View Definition command helps remove inconsistencies that can occur in a drawing between two views, when one view is inherited from the other, due to the non-propagation of view/section plane modifications.

The following remarks apply to this command:

  • Auxiliary, section and detail views can be synchronized.
  • Clipping, Broken, breakout and 3D clipping operators can also be synchronized.
  • Annotations will also be synchronized as the view in which they are present is synchronized. However in some cases it could be necessary to reroute or recreate the annotations.
  • Synchronization of section views with associative section profile is not possible. The section profile is designed to follow the 3D design of a particular object. Thus the view cannot follow the profile as well the parent view support plane modifications. When both definitions become incompatible, the section callout becomes red. In this case, if synchronization is applied, error message is displayed explaining why the operation cannot be carried out.
  • View from 3D does not update automatically its support plane when the corresponding 3D definition is changed. Until now the Modify Projection Plane command was being used to update the 2D projection of a 3D front view. Henceforth the synchronization of a 2D projection of a 3D Front view/Section view will be done using the Synchronize View Definition command. The Modify Projection Plane command will not work for synchronization of a 2D projection of a 3D View.
