Description

The BIM DrawingView tool creates a container object which is a type of Arch BuildingPart meant to hold 2D projection objects like those created by BIM Shape2DView or BIM Shape2DCut.

There are several ways to invoke the tool:
- Press the 2D Drawing button.
- Select the Annotation → Create 2D views → 2D Drawing option from the menu.
