Abstract

A computer-aided design (CAD) system and corresponding method manage three-dimensional (3D) model view/state modifications. The method modifies a parent view of a 3D model in the CAD system based on user input provided to the CAD system. The parent view is linked to a child view of the 3D model that was created from the parent view. The method modifies the child view, automatically, in accordance with the parent view modified. Such linked views and automatic modification enable a user to change view/state of a parent view and have the changes automatically propagated to the child view/state. Further, when such propagation occurs, orientations, positions, and readable directions of annotations are also updated, automatically, saving users (e.g., design engineers) minutes, hours and even days of work on design of the 3D model.
