Hi @WK_9102875,
 
API ProDrawingViewOutlineGet() gets the outline of a drawing view in screen co-ordinates. It outputs the position of view in the drawing sheet.
And, for notes:
Get note's location and sheet size. Then, check whether note's location falls within drawing sheet size.

Isn't the outline of a view represented by multiple coordinates? Why do two 3D coordinates represent the outline of this view?

API ProDrawingViewOutlineGet() gives co-ordinates of diagonal points of a drawing view. These points are enough to know the outline of drawing view.
