Hello again,
freecad for example has very effectiv tool to make an modify sketches and extrude, rotate, etc. volumes from it. But they have only less possibilitis in the drawing workbench.
So if I have a relational tool to make views, detail views and sections in additional tool to freecad, than I complete satisfied.
Autocad Inventor has 3d models to be modified and 2d drawings in relation to the 3d model.
After modifiing the 3d  model you have to look and sometimes to renew the dimensions in the drawings.
That is strictly the other way you (LordofBikes) described.
But it is very usual.

Kind regards
Jörg
