Description
The View tool adds a representation of a Part to a Drawing page. This is the basic building block of the TechDraw module. Most other Views are derived in some way from NewView.

 * 1) Select a part in the 3D window or tree.
 * 2) If you have multiple drawing pages in your document, you will also need to select the desired page in the tree.
 * 3) Press the  button

None.
