How to arrange several views in the correct relationship?

hansrudolfhansrudolf Member Posts: 52 ✭✭
When I select different views of a part (eg. front. left. top), how can I achieve to place them in the correct relative position? It seems that I can put them anywhere on the paper...
I tried to draw a horizontal line with the line tool, but did not find a way to 'glue' two views to that line. And then I could not delete this line... wonder what the real purpose is.

Regards, Hansrudolf

    I think the best is that you insert the first one or use one of the autamated ones, and then, make from that one/s projected views or auxiliary views

    Sorry Gonzalo, that does not help me. My problem is that I can put the projected views anywhere, but I want them on a horizontal (or vertical) line. Furthermore I don't know what the automated views are.

    Hi nav, now that's a clear and fully understandable answer, thanks! I admit i did not see the purpose of the projected view button. Nonetheless thanks to the other gents also, my fault that I did not understand them correctly.

    I'm always very astonished and pleased how fast I get solutions for my small problems here in this forum.

    Kind regards, Hansrudolf.
