Hi guys,

I want to zoom a detail in the 2D drawing to measure it.

Possible?

My solution (to much work) is: I draw the detail as a own body in added it to 2D drawing via VIEWS - PRINCIPAL - Add Bodies for now.

Is there a chance to zoom directly? Please see picture in attachment.

Thanks for help!

Holger

I have a feeling Detail Views are coming soon. I’m very excited for this as I have a lot of designs that require this to be able to easily dimension and display them.
