Quick links to procedures on this page:
You can specify a projected drawing mode by choosing drawing profiles and drawing planes from the Drawing plane toolbar. However, you can have only one drawing profile and one drawing plane active at a time.
You can draw an object in a projected drawing mode, or you can project an object onto a drawing plane. You can also unproject an object from a drawing plane; this reconstructs the object as it would appear in an orthographic view.

Applying a contour to a projected object may not produce the desired results. It is recommended that you apply a contour to the object in its unprojected state and then project the object. Contour groups can be unlinked by clicking Arrange Break contour group apart.
