Does SolidWorks require manual selection of projected views after creating the initial model view?

When creating a drawing in SolidWorks, the initial model view automatically generates different projected views based on the selected model view. This means that once the primary view is placed on the drawing sheet, the software automatically generates the standard projected views (such as top, front, and right side) without the need for manual selection. This feature enhances efficiency and ensures consistency in the representation of the model, streamlining the process of creating technical drawings.

Manual selection of projected views is not necessary because SolidWorks' drawing tools utilize the orientation and geometry of the model to create these views automatically. This capability allows users to focus more on detailing and annotations rather than repetitively selecting each view.

While users can edit or adjust these views later if needed, the initial creation process does not require them to manually select each projected view, making the workflow smoother and more intuitive.
