  1. Open the AUXVIEW2.model document and the AUXVIEW2.CATPart document. The latter will serve as the 3D reference document for the V6 Drawing.
  2. In the AUXVIEW2.model document, click the *DRAFT tab (projection view):



  3. Click the New icon and select Drawing from the New dialog box, to open a V6 Drawing document.
  4. In the New Drawing dialog box, click OK.

  6. Activate the Drawing document, and select the Edit > Paste Special command.
    The Paste Special dialog box is displayed. Choose the paste CATIA_SPEC option.



    Right after you select CATIA_SPEC, a dialog box is displayed in which you can define the 3D Reference necessary for the V6 Drawing.



    This dialog box contains two sections:

    • a list of all the .CATParts (for instance, AUXVIEW2.CATPart) and .CATProducts currently open in the CATIA V5 session.
    • a Browse button giving access to a File/Open dialog box to let you specify a 3D reference other than the currently open .CATParts or .CATProducts.
  7. Select the AUXVIEW2.CATPart document and click OK.
  8. Click OK in the Paste Special dialog box. The Views are generated in the .CATDrawing:
