  2. In the Smart View Panel dialog box, select a sheet, a 3D object, and a plane.
  3. Select a view template.

    The template chapter is saved as preference for next time usage.

  4. Under View Properties, double-click the required parameter and modify it.
  5. In the Primary Content Filter tab, create a spatial filter box.

    Recommendation: Create a spatial filter box if you want to use the multiview option.

  6. In the General tab, at the lower-left corner, click Show Smart Multiview Creation .
  7. In the MultiView Creation dialog box, select one or more panels from the tree or from the 3D area.

    The spatial filter box is created only for the selected objects.

    Under the Plane Offset column, double-click to modify the offset for the selected object in the row.

  8. Under View Looking Direction and Orientation, select an option from the following and close the panel:
    • Same as Main View
    • Default: Computed from the view template or from the preference.
    This specification is added to the selected object from the list.
  9. Optional: Select the required object from the list and click Remove.
  10. Click OK.
    All the views are created on the same sheet. The other views are created with view names having the plane names as their prefix. For example, If the 56th plane is selected, the view name is ASD View_FR.56.

Note:

The view update rules created using the object selection are not copied to the additional views. The view update rules created using KWE rules or a view template containing view update rules, are copied to the additional views.
