Question

Detailing

I have 3 detail views on my drawing, I am trying to align them vertically to the first view. The second aligned view appears to be 3mm higher than the first & the third aligned view is 3mm higher than the second. If I create another view & align that it then drops to 3mm lower than the original view. Yours confused.....

are these projected views? have u tried view update all sheets? do u have any relations that could of failed and are causing craziness? if u pick the view, then hit properties, there should be a view alignment option. try that. good luck Carlos Diaz

Thanks for the reply Carlos In answer to your comments... No they are not projected views they are just partial detail views off a part. Yep tried updating all views, no change. No relations in that part at all. The alignment option is what I'm trying. Thats what is not working properly. It does not want to play nicely. Not a show stopper as my work around at the moment is align the views manually.... I just wondered if anyone else has had this issue. Thanks again Dave Rowe

I think I have found out why the detail views do not line up.... I think its the centre point on each view you have to pick to sketch the spline. Pro/E recognises the picked centre point as the centre of the view & aligns those instead of the centre of the view. And as the picked centre point is in a different position in each view then the views appear not to line up. Cheers
