Below you will find steps explaining how to modify a sample Drawing Configuration to show frame views:

Go to Drawing Configuration:

Find views that already have the Framing Layer set to Frame:

Framing Layer defines a purpose of a wall type layer before linking it with a Framing or Sheating/Paneling Configuration. To link wall type layers, go to Link Wall dialogue. Learn more

If you need more views (e.g. a 3D view), find an existing view (or add a new one) and change the Framing Layer to Frame. Now you have four views showing frames:

Delete views that do not have the Framing Layer set to Frame (optional):

Note: it's recommended to delete other views only if you don't need to show drywall layers. If you want to show drywall layers, Framing Layer should be set to Sheathing/Sheathing II or Paneling.
