Hello, when I crop a view to show only an interesting part of a set, (in the drawing of course), the perimeter is in a solid line. I don't have (as in Autocad) the zigzag line type and the Inventor 2012 software doesn't give me an automatic break line. I have to constantly sketch, create and constrain my break line. That's a lot of time wasted I think! Is there a faster and/or automatic way to do it?
I use framing in these particular cases because making a detail would give too big a circle on my main view!
A priori the framing is only available with a rectangle or a circle:

To be seen to try to use the details, otherwise there is no better solution than to redraw the broken line.
But a priori, the standard only requires that a frame appear around the view and indicate the scale, and straight lines are not prohibited.

Ouch, on my side I don't see the solution regarding the framing settings.
But it is possible to make a smooth rectangular shape detail and then change the scale of that detail...
