Add views in drawings

Drawing views contain modeled Tekla Structures building objects and marks, dimensions, and other objects that you might have added. A drawing view is another way of looking at the model. Drawings may include several views. In addition to the views that Tekla Structures creates automatically based on your selection at drawing creation, you can also add new views and modify the existing views in an open drawing.

You can have different types of views in Tekla Structures drawings:

Main views: front, top, back and bottom views
Section views
End views
Single-part views
3D views
Detail views
Key plan views
Views along grid lines
Elevation views
Plan views
Views that you have created manually from model views, from areas in model views, or from areas in existing drawing views
