Tab View (model view)

On this tab you can edit the display properties of model views.

Overview of the main dialog elements:

View name:

Every view is identified by a unique name that is stored in the set language. You cannot have multiple views with the same name.

Description:

The description is any multilingual text that describes the view in detail.

Layout space:

A model view can always be created for only one layout space. This drop-down list displays all the layout spaces contained in the project. When you open the dialog for the first time, the name of the first main layout space in the project is displayed.

Basic items:

Here you can specify what is to be displayed in the model view. You can also further restrict the content of the layout space that is displayed. Click [...] to open the 3D object selection dialog and select the objects to be displayed in the model view.

In the case of 2D drilling views and model views, the basic items can also be components of lower item hierarchy levels, e.g. mounting surfaces. In the case of copper unfolds, this is not possible.

If the selected basic items do not contain any graphics, the next-higher item with graphics is automatically added.

[Toggle]:

Click this button to open the Show / hide 3D objects dialog. Here you can change the visibility of individual 3D objects independently of the basic items. All items in the previously-selected layout space are listed in a tree view. A tick in front of each item also indicates whether the item is shown or hidden in the view.
