View Dress-up Parameters

View dress-up parameters are located in the Drafting > ViewDressup node of the generative view style XML file (available via Tools > Standard > generativeparameters category > *.XML file). These parameters define the style of the various parameters which deal with the dress-up of the view.

Important: All generative view styles apply to views generated in exact mode. On top of that, some generative view style parameters also apply when creating other view types (CGR, Approximate and Raster), as specified by a note for each concerned view dress-up element.

Note: The information in this section is presented in a Generative Drafting context, but it is identical in 2D Layout for 3D Design workbench.

The following are discussed:
