At first you will have to open your model for which you want to create drawing.

Click on open.

Select your part and click on open.

Click on isometric view.

Then click on start.

Mechanical design drafting.

From here you can choose the desired configuration.

And if I give 2s to 1, scale will be double.

From here, you can change the orientation of the view by giving the angle.

Click on ok.

Click on open.

Then select the other part.

Suppose I want to create drawing for this vertical plate.

Then click on isometric view.

Then click on window.

And go back to your drawing.

Then to add the views manually, click here.

And select front view.

Then click on window.

Select our new part.

That is this vertical plate.

And select the front view.
