Hi All,

Is there a way to show construction lines from part sketch in a drawing? It is not an option in Annotations/Model Items/Reference Geometry.

This is what I am doing. Perhaps you can suggest an option. We use a number of seals and gaskets in or assemblies. I don't always include all the cross section details for the 3D model to keep things simple (usually just the outside perimeter and an inner perimeter when there is a foam core, or something similar). However, I want all that detail in the drawing. Up to this point I have been adding them by copying and pasting 2D into the drawing, scaling and moving in place. One issue is that the 2D doesn't travel with the drawing view if moved like it does when you add a note that gets attached to the drawing view.
