    When I insert a view can I have the model items like dims and hole callouts
    automatically inserted into the drawing view? I remeber a one clients sheet
    format would do this but I do not know how to convert my sheets to this.

    Found it ...

    For those that want to know how this works, open a drawing sheet,
    Tools - Options - Document Properties - Detailing - Auto insert on view
    creation (check all you want to be inserted)
    Now do a save as Drawing template *.drwdot

    Use this as the template and most model items will be automatically
    inserted, Holes from the hole wizard dont seem to come through but it is
    better than nothing. Also just use this for parts or simple assemblies,
    large assemblies become way to complex using this auto insert.

    Cheers!
