convert a 3d view in a viewport to a 2d drawing

[raj banerjee]

Hello,

 

I have a 3d model in model space, in paper space I have a titleblock with 6 different iso style views. Is there a way I can export the title block and the view to another cad file which when opened is 2d? sounds a bit wierd I know but im leaving this firm and the lad who is taking over cannot do 3d so he will just have to manipulate the views in situ. (i know i know )

 

any help would be great peeps

In later versions, there is Export Layout to Model (_EXPORTLAYOUT). There used to be an early version of this available from Autodesk Labs for AutoCAD 2008.

 

If you create the viewports with _SOLVIEW you can use _SOLDRAW to create the 2D and use _CHSPACE to bring the 2D into Paper space.
