To define which elements are drawn in the View, a Drawlist is set up by selecting Graphics > Drawlist from the menu on the User-Defined View form to display the Drawlist Management form.
If the drawlist contains an invalid entry, for example, when the VIEW data does not reflect the Design data, you will receive an error summarizing the problem.
The error dialog in the following example informs you that there is one invalid entry in the drawlist.


The form allows you to define the Drawlist contents by compiling a list of selected elements which are to be drawn in the View.
