Reference Data Default Line Style

mikeb456 — Wed, 26 Apr 2017 16:00:24 GMT

In Inventor 2018 When creating views in a drawing of an assembly which includes reference parts the default Line Style as found in the Drawing View dialog on the Model Sate tab in the Reference Data section is "As Referenced Parts". Any way to change this default ... to Off to suit my need? I've tried creating a Sheet Format in a template including a view with line style set to "Off" but "Off" didn't stick. Thanks Mike

As far as I know... View information related to "REFERENCE" BOM structure components can't be changed until a model containing REFERENCE components are provided in the drawing. Meaning a template can't be setup with this already configured.

Nope.. They are making many of the settings "persistent" in that once you set them in a drawing they stay "persistent" but that one still needs to be set each time a base view is placed...
