Creates the primary part views in a draft document for a selected 3D assembly or part model. The 3D assembly or part model is attached to the draft document, so if the assembly or part changes, you can easily update part views. You can create a single drawing that shows views of different part models and assemblies.
When you select the View Wizard command, the Drawing View Creation Wizard guides you through the process of selecting and placing one or more drawing views.

On the Drawing View Wizard (Drawing View Orientation) page, if you selected multiple model views to place at once, then the View Wizard command ends when you click the drawing sheet. If you place just one view, then the command remains active. You can:
Create additional folded views by clicking to the right, left, top, or bottom of the initial or selected view.
Create pictorial views by clicking diagonally to the top-right, top-left, bottom-right, or bottom-left of the initial or selected view.
Right-click to end drawing view placement mode.
You can change the appearance of a drawing view after you place it. Select the border of the drawing view you want to modify, and then make display changes using the options on the Drawing View Selection command bar. For more extensive options, select the Properties button on the command bar to open the Drawing View Properties dialog box.
Multiple model or assembly documents can be attached to a draft document. After you place the first part view in a document, you can select the View Wizard command again to place additional part views. The next time you select the command, the Select Attachment dialog box is displayed. This dialog box lists the documents that are currently placed in the draft document, and it allows you to browse for another part or assembly to use as the basis for the next part view.
