The overlay idea seems to be what you are after I wonder if you tried these steps already:ġ) create a datum point at the start of your unwrapped curve.Ģ) create a layer that has only this unwrapped curve on it.ģ) create a layer that has the SolidGeom on it (easiest is to use the query-select to pick it from the list)Ĥ) make sure that you have the view orientation that will be presented on the drawing saved in the view listġ) In the drawing's layer state, blank the model layer that has the unwrapped curve on it.Ģ) create the general parent view - this one will presumably have the layer status 'dependent' on the drawing.ģ) Make another general view - this one will be the overlay - and make it match the orientation of its underlying parent.ģ) align the new view to the parent - use the point-point alignment (it's easiest if the point and its datum tag is visible in both views). But I can see how that is a static path which means you have to manage layers in multiple places if something changes in the model's layer structure later on.

Someone else in this thread already suggested the quick way of 'making the layer state of an independent view to be the same as the current drawing layer state'. I have to admit I don't quite understand your predicament - because I don't understand this drawing program complication.
