CATIA V5: How to Apply a Breakout View to Multiple Drawing Views

A Step by Step Explanation

A breakout view applied to any drawing view can be applied to multiple views (e.g. Isometric or Projection Views) without having to redefine the breakout perimeter and/or depth. The following steps can be used to apply a single breakout view to multiple drawing views.

1. Apply and define a breakout view
