Automatic break lines for Detail, Break and Crop

[Andrii_Humeniuk]

Hello everybody!

With the new version of Inventor 2025, Automatic Break Lines for Crop Views have been added. It may not seem like a big achievement compared to other updates, but these are quite important steps in achieving a strong tool in the design of drawings according to standards. But there are several problems and wishes:

• A new line is created only for the Crop tool, but it must also be added for the break lines of the Detail tool (top right - break line for Crop, bottom right - break line Detail);
• The default layer for the new break line is Visible Narrow, and the default layer for the old break line is Break Line. It seems that it should be the same layer (Break Line);
• There is no centering of the new break line, this can be seen in the screenshot compared to the centering of the break line in the Break function(bottom left);
• You can also see that the new break line differs from the old line in the Break function, that is, by the slope in the ZigZag symbol itself.

In any case, a big thank you to the Autodesk team for developing Inventor in this direction.
