Method

1. First, select the single part or group for which you want to generate the additional view and Hide other elements in the Model.

2. Now, open the Detail Center Standard located under Drawing Production tab and reload the parts from the model.

3. Assign the Detail Style to filtered Single/ group parts and then set view/orientation of the that part in the model as per the view is required to be generated. For e.g., here, the selected single part is viewed isometrically and the same view will be added in the Detail Center.
