In essence, we would show any information needed to make the part in this type of technical working drawing.

So we're going to begin a new IDW file, so we've used almost all of these icons except for this one so far, so this is our new drawing, so we'll select that. And it will put us in to the drawing environment, and you can see here by default, Inventor has put us into…
