We recommend always using the callout tools, they are integrated with the discipline specifc Drawing Seed Models so you get the right settings and have less manual steps to execute. 
 However if you use the 'Create Saved View' tool ensure that you select the View Type when you create the Saved View, this will give you access the the Drawing Seed Models when you manually start the Create Drawing dialog 
 Existing Saved Views, where the Type was not selected, can be changed from 'Saved View' to Plan, Section, Elevation and Detail views by right-clicking on the view in the Saved View dialog and picking Properties, change the Type in the General panel. Once set to Plan, Section, Elevation or Detail the view type is fixed. When you go to Create Drawing the Drawing Seed Models will be listed.

In Workspace Configuration, make sure the variable for Seed File Location (MS_SEEDFILES) contains the string $(TFDIR_SEED);$(TFDIR_SEED);$(_USTN_SYSTEMROOT)seed\;$(_USTN_SITE)seed\ 
These paths should expand out to four product seed file locations. 
 
You may have other folder definitions under this variable, but I would Prepend the product definitions so they occur first in the list.
