MULTIVIEW PROJECTION
Three principle dimensions of an object can be presented only two in each view. Adjacent view(s) is needed to fulfill the size description.

PROJECTION OF OBJECT
The views are obtained by projecting all object features to the picture plane.
You have to project the remaining surfaces which are invisible too !
