Workflow

Why would I use it?

What can I do?

What is Inventor doing?

Fast Open

Viewing, simple create/edit
that doesn’t require the
model

Create dimensions and text

Avoids loading any model
information

Raster Views

Best performance for large
assembly drawings

Create views, create
annotations*

Loads only Express data until
precise model is required

Precise Views

Create best quality hidden
line drawing views

No restrictions

Defer Update

Avoid updating the drawing
to reflect changes to the
model

Used in combination with
either Raster or Precise
views (see above)

model

Create dimensions and text

Avoids loading any model
information

Raster Views

Best performance for large
assembly drawings

Create views, create
annotations*

Loads only Express data until
precise model is required

Precise Views

Create best quality hidden
line drawing views

No restrictions

Defer Update

Avoid updating the drawing
to reflect changes to the
model

Used in combination with
either Raster or Precise
views (see above)
