What is the functionality under drawing open>View Only or >Open Representation or >Content??

[abesau]

Just found out new options in CREO 2 under the drawing open pull down menu.  I had never seen these before nor know what good

I could get out of it.  Just a user trying to get the most out of the tool.  See attached JPEG.

Thanks for your help.

I use the open representation. On our large drawings, sometimes it's difficult to work with everything up, you can open the drawing with NO VIEWS and then resume the views as necessary to work on them.  You can also define custom drawing reps so it when you open a specific rep, it goes to the sheet and resumes the views on that sheet only.

The drawing rep creation is kind of hard to find, in the drawing, it's under the tools tab, utilities drop down arrow, drawing representation.
