Design representation in drawings

johan.degreef — Tue, 07 Mar 2023 14:34:49 GMT

I have an assembly with a few section views, under different Design representations.

If I make a drawing it seems that section views are not transferred from the model, is that correct?

As far as I know, the section tool in the model is just a preview and visual inspection tool. It probably has no creative power.

Correct.

Sections Views defined in Design View Representations are not carried over to the drawing environment.

Hi @johan.degreef

There have been requests to support assembly sections in drawings. Unfortunately, its not supported at this time as it requires a project to implement.

Thanks

Please add this feature to Inventor. I am having the same issue and have found forum posts of people asking for this same thing for years... Like this one: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/view-representations-don-t-show-in-drawings/td-p/7387912
