Q . What are the preset views for material?
A . Each material has the same set of preset views that can, potentially, appear on its submaterial detail. The names of these preset views are as follows:
|
Q . How are preset views assigned to be shown on a submaterial detail?
A . The main view of a material is automatically assigned to be shown on a submaterial detail when that material is created. Other preset views are automatically assigned to be shown on a submaterial detail on an as-needed basis. For example, if a view is needed to depict a particular hole that is not shown on the main view, the program automatically assigns to the submaterial detail a preset view that shows a material face on which that hole is visible. The views that are shown on a submaterial detail are exactly the same views that are in the view list for that same material when that material is shown in material Isolation's review views mode . If a user in a full-featured SDS2 program adds a view to the view list, that view will be marked as "user created" and, like the views that were automatically added to the view list, will be shown on the submaterial detail.
Q . What does Auto do?
A . " 
Auto " indicates the use of default " In depth " and " Out depth " values for that particular preset view.
|
"  Auto " indicates a user has assigned the " In depth " and " Out depth " values.
|
Q . What are " In depth " and " Out depth "?
A . " In depth " is the distance in from the plane of the view. " Out depth " is the distance out from the plane of the view. The " In depth " and " Out depth " values entered for a particular material and view will be the same values that are shown for " In " and " Out " on the depth check controls when a particular instance of that material and view is displayed in material Isolation's review views mode .
