Definition: An orthographic view is the figure outlined upon the projection plane by means of the system of orthographic projection. Orthographic views may be constructed, or they may be saved views that are automatically gen-erated from models or design models. Orthographic view requirements apply equally to constructed and automatically generated views unless exception is stated.
