Is it possible to crop drafting views on sheets?

[svalente9GJKH]

i am trying to crop out some of my drafting view when placed on sheets but im not seeing a way to do this,  is it in fact at all possible?

Thanks

No.  But you can do one of the following:

- add masking regions in the drafting view if the masked area is relatively small, or they may mask adjacent views

- use detail views to draft instead of drafting views

Would you consider a Solid White "Masking" Filled Region on the Sheet?  There is a trick for this, if you are interested.

Sure,  what is the trick?

- draw a detail line on sheet

- make a detail group, keep it on sheet

- place another group instance in a drafting view

- edit group and add filled/masking region, save group

Or you can place a stretchable generic annotation family with a solid filled region to mask anything on sheets.
