Assembly process for drawings !

[lazarjdespotmetal]

How to configure process that works for extraction all assemblies on for example A0 drawing ?

Is it possible to configure that process ?

I want to put 3 views, front, top and side view for each assembly ?

Also, I want front view to be main view on assembly drawing, and on right side I want to be side view, and on the upper to be top view of assembly.

My Advance Steel is on German, so HT is Hauptteil (Assembly).

When I click on that process now, I get like this:

Nothing is in order, and I have sections that I don't need, I just want to be simple, 3 view * top, front, side.

Also, for example I do not need middle line on drawing, can I configure that also ?

Where I can configure these process ? I have already tried to find this configuration in process manager or drawing manager, but I cannot find this what I need.

To configure what views and sections are added in the drawing style you go to Output > Drawing Style Manager

Search for the Assembly Style you want to change, then try the Use button to see if it works.

(the process is using a set of rules and maybe it is using a different style that you want and had configured. This is why i recommend to test first the drawing style that is working for you, then try to make the changes in the process manager)

After you can try the Drawing Process Manager, where you configure what Drawing Style to use and when

for this question: Also, for example I do not need middle line on drawing, can I configure that also ?

I presume you want to system line to be shown or not, and that is found in Drawing Style Manager, Object Presentation, Presentation Rule

This is jut where you find this rules, how to change to show what you want is for you to experiment.

I hope this is helping you.

Hi,

What the drawing style for an individual assembly shows is one question. The answer there involves drawing styles as above and is quite complex. However, I imagine that your styles are primarily showing a front view as the main view but what the front view is depends on which part is the Main Part of the Assembly. Also, you can set the desired front view of an assembly using the Define Assembly Detailing Direction command on the Tools Palette. You will often need to do that for railings for example. 

The drawing sheet you show in the image has lots of assemblies on it. To get just one assembly per sheet you need To find a Drawing Process that says something like "Single Sheet". In the UK Build the process is called "Assemblies A0 - Single BOM". I would be surprised if there is not a suitable process already defined but I have no idea what the German name would be. You may not have an A0 version though. Most users never touch A0 sheets so they may only have an A1 version predefined. 

There are a lot of subtle things that influence the drawing output. Model Roles, main parts, detailing direction, drawing processes, drawing styles etc. Most of those are not immediately apparent in a model and how they affect drawings is not clear. So if you are self taught you will not really understand all the interactions affecting your drawings. This is where proper training comes in. Once you understand it all, 10 minutes setting things up in the model could save many hours of manual editing of drawings.
