Text appears in all views created from a 3D model

    I have a 3D model that I am extracting sections/views from (eg plan and 2
    elevations).

    After creating the plan and elevations from the 3D model I then add text to
    each view (in model space), however, the text also appears (as lines) in the
    other 2 views.

    Is there a way to ensure the text only appears in the view it was created in
    (and not in all the other views as well) or do I have to add all text in
    paper space?

    I also noticed that any new linework added to each view also appears in the
    other views but sometimes as a diagonal line. I presume this is because the
    line was drawn in a view created from 3D and therefore can show Z values
    incorrectly.

    Is there a way to stop lines appearing like this?

    regards

    you can place it on separate layer & then freeze that layer in each of the
    views you don't wish to see it in. much easier to just do it in paperspace.
    if you are not wanting to redo the text, just wblock it out from the model &
    insert it into paperspace, scale to fit & Voila.

  3. That's the second "Voila" in a couple of days on this group. Have we all
    been watching too many of those home decorating TV shows?
