Hi Michael,

I think I have asked this before but cant find it I need to dimension up 2d multiviews 4 view - so the flat views are scale 1:1 in MOI for direct dimension and export out as PDFS.

Any possible clues to finding it would be great.

Thanks Alex.

Yes, but it uses the "Projection method 3".
In Europe we use the "Projection method 1".
So the views are swapped.
I tryed to edit your script by replacing "Top" with "Bottom" and so on, but it dont work.

Hi BlackBird,

You can modify the script to do this by finding line number 33 in make2D4Views.js which has this:

code:
var views = [ 'Top', '3D', 'Front', 'Right' ];


and change it to this instead:

code:
var views = [ 'Right', 'Front', '3D', 'Top' ];


- Michael

hi
something i discovered by accident

the 3D view is the current view when calling the script
( and not a parallel or isometric view )

Hi Chri,

Yes that's how it is set up to work, same as the regular Make2D command and also same as the Make2D command in Rhino as well.

If you want it to generate a parallel view you need to set the 3D view to be a parallel projection before running this command.
