It comes from the first piece of your assembly. The reference points of the assembly were modelled on the elements of this part.
To realign the views, not the plans.
Select a face in relation to which you want to position your front view for example. And then right-click and Normal a.
Then press the space bar to bring up the visualization cube. Select the view you want to replace at the bottom . Here is the front view. And press the Replace Views button.
All the views will be aligned with the one you just created. You can do this again if necessary.
In most cases, it is possible to avoid this kind of inconvenience by correctly choosing the origin and position of the plans when creating the pieces. This will be very useful in your assemblies and drawings later on and will save you a lot of time.
Realigning the views is convenient but I see 2 disadvantages:
- with a speedpak the default orientation is restored
- there is a lack of logic: where I work we try to orient the rooms in the same way as on our machines e.g. if you draw a house, in top view (ctrl+5) you will see the roof and in front view (ctrl+1) the front door, why do it differently? If we continue this logic, with the door sub-assembly we will see the door with its handle in front view and not the edge
So, as Remrem says, the best thing to do is to set the position of the pieces correctly at the beginning of the creation.
No. I had the problem again yesterday with an assembly of about ten parts.
I looked at every detail of every part of the assembly. Nothing special or indicated.
I had to remove them all and start from scratch to regain my normal views.
I think this comes from the fact that I am forced to roll views to reach the parts or the features to be constrained between them.
To avoid this as much as possible, I move my view with the direction arrows. Not practical at all, whereas moving with the mouse wheel pressed down is much faster.
To answer in more detail to remrem, if I do "normal to", the view is in front of me, but crooked. (see my photo)
And by doing ALT + arrows to straighten the file, it doesn't work?
Otherwise, send an assembly that is like this, making a composition to take away, and putting only a cube so that we can visualize and that there is no problem of confidentiality!
I tried this from the beginning, of course. To no avail.
It is really a loss of reference points in space.
As for posting a file with this problem here, impossible. I've been struggling for so many months on this problem, when I encounter it, without finding solutions, that I do against bad luck with a good heart, and that each time, I start the whole assembly from scratch.
I say this again. This happens when you roll the views to select the points, lines, or faces of constraints. What for? Mystery and gumball...
I have gotten into the habit, on somewhat complex assemblies, of creating a backup copy regularly, which I call "Backup"
So, in case the problem arises, I go back to the latest version of "backup", which saves me from having to start all over again and waste hours.
But I still find it unfortunate that a function that allows you to put your view back in the basic position does not exist.
