The SOLIDWORKS Drawing View Palette is a great way to add standard drawing views to your SolidWorks document. As you drag and drop the Top, Right, Front or other views onto the drawing sheet they disappear from the list. A common question that new users ask is
Question: How to get drawing views that have been placed on the sheet but later deleted to be available again in the SOLIDWORKS Drawing View Palette?
