How do I make multiple views (Front, Top, Side & Isometric) when driving an assembly constraint? I want to be able to show an assembly moving from different perspectives all at one time. Is this possible?
Create a positional rep for the assembly at each of the various stages. Then you can create drawing views of those positional reps.

Are you referring to .idw? Is there a way to actually see the assembly move from two or more viewpoints when driving the assembly?
Yes, I assumed you meant .idw. Two or more viewpoints at the same time while driving? I don't know if this can be done. Anyone else out there?

You can create and tile several windows of your assembly in different viewpoints, but I can only get it to drive one at a time... not all at the same time. Sorry.

That is what I found, also. I could swear I saw this being done at a seminar, though.
I had the same question and found an answer. Thought I'd add a solution for other passers-by that want to know:
1) Open you part or assembly (works for both)
2) Click View > under Windows tab click New
3) Rotate your part to the area of interest for each window (Iso, cut though, click the view cube or whatever)
4) Create more New windows of the same part or assembly until happy
5) Click the Tile button to rearrange on screen, or DIY
6) Update your feature or constraint in one window and this will update in all the other windows simultaneously.
Same part just viewed from different angles in seperate windows
