- [Trainer] Exploded Views are a wonderful way
to show all the components inside of an assembly.
Now right here on the screen,
you can see I already have an Exploded View of this assembly
and you can see if I spin it around,
you can see all the different components in there.
Now let me show you how I created this Exploded View.
But before I do, I want to head over to the drawing,
which I have opened up over here.
I deleted out the Exploded View we had
from some of our earlier videos
and I want to place a new Exploded View over here.
So here are the different views I have.
Here's my full bowl of materials.
And now we want to create that Exploded View here.
Now I'm going to jump back over here to this Exploded View,
and if you click on the Feature Manager right up at the top,
if you go over to, you've come over here
to Configuration Manager and below this configuration view,
look at the twirl down, is that Exploded View.
Now I already have that Exploded View.
And if you right click on it, I can say collapse,
and it brings it back down here.
But even though we have an Exploded View
we can actually make multiple Exploded Views
or we can delete that Exploded View
and create a brand new one.
So right up here at the top of the screen under assembly,
we have a thing called Exploded View
and directly below that is Exploded View.
I can also show the line sketch
and I can also insert, edit smart exploded lines.
So a couple things I can do there.
So click on Exploded View,
which is going to make a brand new Exploded View,
and come over here,
and notice we've got the explode steps here.
So the first thing you need to do
to create an Exploded View is just choose one
or multiple components to move.
So if I choose this piece right here,
notice I get this little triad that pops up here
and I can just drag that component up above, right?
And notice, now that shows up here is explode step one.
Click on this component here.
That's also going to be brought up
because I'm adding another component.
When you're done click on Okay,
and now you're out of the Exploded View.
so I just exploded one step there.
Now if you want to get back into the explode command
or the feature, right click on it and say, Edit Feature.
And here's my first explode.
Now I can continue doing the same thing.
I can click over here, grab this component here,
and move it up, it looks good and then say, Done.
And then come over here and just one by one,
grab these components and move them up, click on Done.
After you're done with each one of these,
move it up, a little bit above,
or you can choose multiple items, right, at the same time.
So you can say done on this one.
You can grab like this component here
and that component there and then move them together.
Click on Done, grab this component here, move it up.
Right, you might want to put that a little bit above.
And so you want to see how things are going to look.
Of course you can go back.
Now at any point in time, once you've added these steps,
you can go back here and look at the components that evolve
or you can actually modify that step
by clicking on the Steps here
to get to that perfect Exploded View
that you're looking for.
Once you're done with the Exploded View,
just click on the green check mark,
and now you have the Exploded View.
So notice in this assembly, we have two Exploded Views.
So this one here, I can collapse it down.
So I'm using that Exploded View here.
I also have this Exploded View, which we had before explode
and that's the original one I was working with.
So a couple different options there
and you can have as many exploded views as you'd like.
And of course you can go back
into any one of those Exploded Views
and you can control how those components are moved.
I want to go ahead and collapse this one here,
explode this one over here.
And then I want to go back over that drawing
and in the drawing here,
a good way to bring in Exploded Views to a drawing
is like this view here is my asymmetric view.
Click on that one, hit Control + C for Control + Copy
and then Control + V for Paste.
So now have an exact copy in the same exact orientation
as this view here.
Now what I want to do is I want to use an Exploded View here.
So click on that view and notice it says,
show an exploded or model break state, click on Okay.
And then that brings in that full Exploded View
and explodes it out, which is pretty cool.
And over here, you can reference configuration
if you wanted to and we can make
a bunch of different changes down here as far as the scale,
the dimensions, the display style, all that kind of stuff
to bring that in.
And if you wanted to, you can make one of those views active
or not depending on which one you want to bring in,
but this one has everything exploded.
So let's go ahead and use that on the drawing.
Now we can add our balloons or auto balloon in
and we should be all set
with that Exploded View in our drawing.
