7.3 Modifying view-level drawing properties
Most of the properties that a single-part, assembly and cast unit drawing has are specified
for each of the drawing views separately in the automatic drawing properties.
You can modify the view-level drawing properties after you have created the drawing. The
changes you make apply only to the view that you have selected to modify.
To modify drawing properties on the view level after you have created a drawing:
1. Open the drawing.
2. Double-click a drawing view frame to open the drawing view properties dialog box.
3. The check boxes are off by default. When you touch a property, for example, select an
option, Tekla Structures adds a check mark to the check box next to the option in the
option tree.
4. Make the necessary changes.
5. Click Modify when you are ready with the changes.
The view changes according to the changes that you made in the drawing view properties.
Some of the changes in you make require a drawing recreation. For more information, see
Settings affecting the recreation of drawings on page 315.
