Dress-up

The 2D Layout for 3D Design workbench enables you to create:
  • 2D dress-up
  • associative 3D dress-up
  • associative hybrid dress-up between 2D and 3D elements

 

As dress-up commands work as in the Interactive Drafting workbench, most tasks included in this section provide links to the Interactive Drafting User's Guide. As such, the information detailed in these tasks is presented in an Interactive Drafting context. You should note that the Interactive Drafting User's Guide contains images that correspond to the Interactive Drafting workbench and therefore illustrate dress-up in an environment that is different from the 2D Layout for 3D Design environment (symbols and background color, for example).

Refer to Creating dress-up in a 2D Layout for 3D Design Context which explains what is specific to creating dress-up in the 2D Layout for 3D Design workbench as opposed to doing so in the Interactive Drafting workbench.
