“Sections” Tab

You can define options for section views on 2D projections on the Sections tab.

For some models (future components of assemblies) it can be helpful to define special settings for preventing their cutting when used in section views of 2D projections. For example it is known that bolts should not be cut on section views of assembly drawings. This option will help to avoid time consuming manual customization of 2D projection parameters for assemblies that contain such parts.

New condition can be created with the help of button. Section Application Condition section will appear with the lists of conditions and LCS names.

 

Conditions are organized in relation to the alleged source fragment LCS that exists in a document of a future 3D fragment. For example a part may remain uncut if a section plane goes through a specified axis of the source LCS, or coincides with one of the main LCS planes.
