Hi,

One big problem I’m having with 2D drawings is when, having dimensioned and annotated a drawing, I then decide to change the objects to be included in the drawing, I have to delete the current view and insert a new one. All the ‘connected’ dims and note lines are then lost and have to be re-applied.

Is there a way of the view updating (as it does when the model has been altered) rather than having to be replaced?

Thanks  
Simon

Bump. 🙂 This issue is still present and affects my work. I’m using Shapr3D Pro 5.281.0 on macOS.
