Q1. How can i create an exploded view and an un-exploded view on a drawing?

  • In Assembly Design workbench, click "Enhanced Scene" icon (Fig.1). The background will become light green.

  • Click OK to accept the default setting (automatic naming, partial overload mode)

  • Drag the parts out by the Compass (Fig.2)

  • Click the icon "Save viewpoint" (Fig.3)

  • Click the icon "Exit". The background will be back to Blue. The assembly will be back to the original shape. We can see Scene.1 on the tree (Fig.4)

  • Select "Start/ Mechanical Design/Drafting" on the top menu (Fig.5). Select a layout and a paper size.

  • Click the icon "Isometric View" and select a planar face of the assembly. Then we have an un-exploded view on the drawing (Fig.6)

  • Click the icon "Isometric View" again. Single-click on Scene.1 on the tree. Then select a planar face of the assembly. Finally we have an exploded view on the drawing. (Fig.7)
