The Tools > Assembly Views > Show Assembly View command allows you to quickly display an isometric view of the selected block, assembly, or assembly block based on the local coordinate system created when its manufacturing orientation was assigned. The coordinate system has the manufacturing up-vector z'-axis and the x'- and y'-axis from the assigned viewing rotation. In the following illustration, an isometric projection of a coordinate system shows the main directions of the coordinate axes.

assembly block

An assembly block is a collection of blocks, assemblies, structural parts, equipment, outfitting parts, and outfitting assemblies (such as pipe spools, HVAC, and so forth) and is a child of the top-level block or another assembly block.

assembly

Collection of assemblies, structural parts, equipment, outfitting parts, and outfitting assemblies (such as pipe spools, HVAC, and so forth). An assembly is a child of a block, assembly block, or another assembly.

block

A block is a high-level assembly that is a spatial definition of a section of the marine structure. Blocks are created by splitting a volume and contain assemblies, parts, and/or child blocks created by splitting the block. A block is a child of the top-level block (B0), an assembly block, or another block.

The resulting display of the selected assembly or block is scaled to fit in the view of the active window and hiding all items not pertinent to the selected assembly. If clipping exists, it is cleared.

Show Assembly View is only active when you have a single block, assembly, or assembly block selected.

In the Planning task, you work with decomposing the model structure into assemblies designed for a specific workcenter. The task of designing assemblies and building methods includes deciding the manufacturing orientation of assemblies (the orientation, or up-vector, of an assembly while it's being built). Show Assembly View helps you to evaluate assemblies and building methods.
