What is the benefit of this enhancement?
The new Create Draft View option allows you to select several entities (either created or imported) and convert them all into a new 2D draft view that could also be scaled. This is useful when you import legacy drawings that have no model behind it, or if you have a collection of draft entities which you want to be treated as a view.
With this enhancement, you can also create relation between several draft views (general-projection view) and show their hierarchy relation in the drawing tree (see image below).
This enhancement enables an easier maintenance of imported/draft drawings and a quick organization of 2D draft views.
