This task will show you how to isolate:
Isolating a view amounts to:
- suppressing associativity between an existing CATPart (or CATProduct
or CATModel) and the corresponding generated view.
- transforming a generated view into an interactive view.
|
 |
Open the
GenDrafting_part.CATDrawing document. |
 |
Isolating a selection of views
|
 |
|
|
-
Select the views you want to isolate, for example the
Top, Bottom, Left and Right views, and right-click them.
-
Select Selected objects > Isolate.
 |
For the purpose of this scenario, several views are
selected, but if you select only one view, the left view for example,
then you need to select Left view object > Isolate from
the contextual menu. |
The selected views are now isolated. If you perform one
or more modifications on the CATPart, you will not be able to update the
isolated views.
|
|
Isolating all views in the drawing
|
 |
|
|
-
In the specification tree, right-click the drawing object
(GenDrafting_part in this case).
-
Select Drawing object > Isolate.
All views in the drawing are now isolated. If you perform
one or more modifications on the CATPart, you will not be able to update
the drawing.
|
 |
- A view that has been isolated cannot be de-isolated.
- Center lines, threads and axis lines in isolated views are no longer associated to geometry.
- Dimensions in isolated views are no longer associated to geometry.
