    Problem Description

    How to manually clip/trim the outside objects so that we can get the inside required portion of the 2D drawing view?

    Steps to resolve

    Enter methods to resolve in this section.

    When a 2D drawing view inserted in a model then that object will be in the form of Shared Cell.

    1. First, we need to drop the Shared Cell by using the Drop Element tool.

    2. Place a block to cover the portion of the 2D drawing view that you want to trim.

    3. Use Trim Multiple tool to trim the elements outside of the block.

    In this way, one can trim the 2D drawing view.
