CAD Drawing View

A Drawing View output field allows a configurator to manipulate a pre-existing view on a CAD drawing sheet.

Properties

Depending on the CAD platform you use, some properties of this feature or the feature itself may not be available.

Property	Datatype	Description
Name	text	The name of the output field. Used for referring to this output field in snap rules.
External ID	text	A unique name that identifies the entity in the file that the output field maps to. See External ID topic for more info.
Auto Postion Annotations	boolean	If set to true, Epicor CPQ will move pre-defined drawing annotations to account for the view sale changing.
Use Custom Scale	boolean	Controls whether or not the view scale is set by the user. If true, the view scale will be set to the value of the Scale Numerator / Scale Denominator.
Scale Numerator	number	The numerator of the user-defined view scale value.
Scale Denominator	number	The denominator of the user-defined view scale value.
Auto Size	boolean	If true, the view will be automatically re-scaled to match the size of the view's viewbox on the template file. Use for parent views only. In some CAD platforms: The view must have its Use Custom Scale property set to true in the CAD software 'view scale properties' window.  Autosize may not take into account cropped views: even if a view is cropped, autosize still uses the full size of the original, uncropped view.
Auto Dimension	boolean	If true, model dimensions will be imported to the view. In some CAD platforms: Only model dimensions with their 'Marked For Drawing' property set to true will be imported.
Auto Position	boolean	If true, the view will be moved to account for re-scaling of the view. Autoposition does not take into account cropped views in SolidWorks: even if a view is cropped, autosize still uses the full size of the original, uncropped view.
X	number	if 'Auto Position' is set to false, then controls the X position of the view in drawing units. In some CAD platforms: This is the horizontal distance from the lower left corner of the drawing to the view's original origin position.  This position is the center of the view when it was created in the CAD software.  If the size of this view changes, this position does not.
Y	number	if 'Auto Position' is set to false, then controls the Y position of the view in drawing units. In some CAD platforms: This is the vertical distance from the lower left corner of the drawing to the view's original origin position.  This position is the center of the view when it was created in the CAD software.  If the size of this view changes, this position does not.
Auto Balloon	boolean	If true, balloons will be added to the view.
Ignore Multiple Balloons	boolean	If true, only one balloon per component will be added to the view.
Suppressed	boolean	If true, the view will be hidden.
Deleted	boolean	If true, the view will be deleted from the sheet.
Parent BOM Title	text	Sets the name of the BOM table on the drawing
BOM Renumber	boolean	If true, the BOM will be reordered.
Allow Multiple Balloons First level Only	boolean	If true, only balloons for the top level of an assembly will be added to the view.
