I’m not sure what is preventing you from exporting the views.

Can you please explain what steps you are taking?

I am following the usual steps of highlighting and creating a drawing. Then when I’m in the two dimensional drawing section, I choose a left view and section it. Then I try to export it and it just says export failed.

I just discovered that the section view works on every other drawing that I have made it just no longer works on this one, that is to export.

Could you please share your workspace (with the not exportable drawing) to analyse the issue?
