Section View of a Surface

You can create a section view of surface bodies from a parent view of a part. Additionally, you can apply annotations such as notes and dimensions to the cross section of the surface.

To create a section view of surface bodies:

In a drawing view, click Section View tool_Section_View_Drawing.gif (Drawing toolbar) or Insert > Drawing View > Section. In the PropertyManager, select Display surface bodies. This setting persists across sessions.

You can create a section view of surface bodies for legacy drawings if the drawings' parent views have surface bodies.
