How do I set the object graphical representation of a custome profile in Details

Hi Group,

 

I created a new aluminum channel rung (EMS typ)  and included an "exact outer contour" profile that is working beautifully in the modeling environment.

 

I want to be able to give a cross section of this part in the detail views on my drawing in some cases to provide the customer with an exact graphical representation of the profile so that we all understand which rung I am supplying with the ladder in the approvals.

 

Is it possible to set the "exact contour" representation state in the detail views for part before the drawing creation.... or at least be able to change it to the exact contour representation after the detail is created?

I figured it out...... Duh!!      I actually knew of this before and then forgot about it...... go figure!

 

It's in the DSM drawing styles under object presentation-presentation  Selecting "Visible (Exact)"

 

Lots of rabbit holes to chase in AST but it is powerfully customizable.

 

Regards
