It isi possible create a detail view in which the bonudary is not a spline but a geometric shape (circle, rectangle). Important, i speak the detail view ed not the principal view.

No. It is always a spline. I normally let the circle be created and then redo the spline to fit the circle.

I wish they would fix this, but after many decades, I don't think they will.

You can always crop a view for a rectangle, but not for a detail view.

Fascinating!!! i asked this same question about 18 years ago. My approach to this is the same as Antonius's.

Maybe, one day, Ptc will surprise us with this.
