What exploded views should include
Use exploded views when users need to understand how parts separate, align, and reconnect.
Part separation
Show each visible part away from the main body without losing the product relationship.
Callouts and fasteners
Add numbered labels, screws, clips, tabs, seals, washers, or detail circles.
Assembly context
Pair the exploded view with arrows, step panels, warnings, or final check states.

Exploded View Illustration FAQ
Should I use an exploded view or a step-by-step sequence?
Exploded views answer "how do all the parts relate to each other" before the user starts. Step sequences answer "what do I do first, second, third." A first-time assembly guide usually needs steps; a replacement-parts page or service overview usually needs an exploded view. Many manuals need both — one exploded view as the chapter opener, then step panels for each assembly stage.
Is this a CAD exploded view?
No. ManualFig creates explanatory documentation artwork. It does not replace CAD, manufacturing drawings, dimensions, or engineering validation.
Can I export exploded views as SVG?
Yes. Generated images can be converted to SVG for scalable documentation assets.
What references help most?
Product photos, CAD screenshots, part photos, sketches, existing manual pages, and part lists all help guide the output.
