Isometric views in drawings

colin_daly

When creating a drawing you are supposed to see two options:  no views or 4 views.  I am only able to choose the no views option, which allows you to add your own views.  For some reason, the "4 views" option is greyed out when I go to create a drawing, regardless of what template I select.  When I try and insert views of a part or assembly into a drawing, I cannot add any isometric views.  only options are front, back, right etc.

To get the "4 views" option you have to right click a part in a part studio and choose "Create drawing of ... "  so Onshape knows which part in the Document you want a drawing of. 

Isometric views are created with the Projected view command.  You can project off the front view for example to create an isometric.

@ colin_daly, you can try to creat isometric view by "Auxiliary view"

@colin_daly , You can use "projected view" option also for making isometric view as shown in below video along with "Auxiliary view" as shown by @cody_armstrong.
