Drawing Top View & Bottom View are the Same

[wesley.bonafe]

Well, maybe this time I will successfully attach the file, sorry.  The drawing top view & bottom view are the same.  How do I fix this?

Well, clearly I don't have clue when it come to posting a screencast.

So to try and give an answer to this, the forum users will need your Fusion 360 model.  Please attach the model that is creating the drawing where you save the top and bottom views are the same.  If you do not know how to attach your model, open it in Fusion360, select the File menu and then choose Export and save the .F3D file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a reply forum post to attach it.

Well here we go...

This is a very symmetrical component and you are placing the views using the Orientation from the Drawing View dialog box.  If you create a named Bottom View in the Model using the view cube and then use that in the drawing view selection, you will see that the views are correct.  The Bottom view, from the Drawing View dialog, probably is spinning the component 180 degrees so you see the odd view of this very symmetrical component.  The Screencast shows this.

Hi @wesley.bonafe ,

I modified the design by adding a hole at the left end of the design.

The result is as shown in the attached image, not sure if this is a bug.

For now you can rotate the drawing from "rotate" command and continue to work.

Solved!  Thanks.

Hi,

This is how I create the views.

This makes sense.  However, when you have 2 Base views on a drawing, how do precisely align them?

[jhackney1972]

Not sure of your situation but in my Screencast I line up two base views of the same component, one of the Front view and on of the Back.
