You can open them only in Inventor or Inventor View. This file type results
in smaller file sizes.
The DWG file type is native to AutoCAD
®
. You can open DWG files in
AutoCAD, Inventor, or DWG TrueView. If you create data using Inventor in
a DWG file, you can modify the data only with Inventor. If you create data
using AutoCAD in a DWG file, you can modify the data only with AutoCAD.
If a downstream consumer of your Inventor data needs a DWG file, consider
using DWG files as the default in Inventor.

A drawing view is a 2D representation of a 3D digital prototype that is placed
on a drawing sheet. The commands for views in Inventor are like view types
in drafting. The two types of view commands in Inventor are author and
modify. Author commands create new views. They are located in the Author
panel of the ribbon. Modify commands change existing views. They are located
on the Modify panel of the ribbon.
The first view placed on a drawing is a base view. Subsequent views are either
children of the base view or additional base views. As you create views, they
are listed in the browser with the sheet, title block, and border.
Types of Drawing Views
Base View
The first view created in a drawing. The base view is the source for
subsequent views and controls the scale and alignment for them.
You can create one or more base views on a drawing sheet.
You select the orientation of the view when you create it. The default
orientations are based on the origin in the digital prototype.
