Modifying Cross Sections
Using the Sections category on the Drawing View dialog box, you can:
• Add a section to view
• Remove a section from a view
• Replace a section used in the view
• Make the view to not show any section at all
• Change a full section view to a half or local section view.
• Change a total section view to an area section view, and vice versa.
You can also modify cross sections in the following ways:
• Change the reference points of a local cross section in a general or projection view
• Change the boundary of a local cross section in a general or projection view
• Modify a partial view with a local cross section
• Modify a broken view with a local cross section. Note: When you change the section properties of a broken view, the view temporarily displays as unbroken.
• Remove or replace a cross section
• Flip a full total cross-sectional view
• Add or remove section arrows for all sections used in the view
You can delete a cross section definition from a model without having to retrieve the model. You cannot delete a cross section when it is being used by a drawing in session. Deleting a cross section in the drawing also deletes it in other drawings. To delete a section not used in any drawing in the current session, select a section view and access the Drawing View dialog box by either double-clicking, or by right-clicking and selecting Properties on the shortcut menu. Click on Sections category, in a section name list cell, select the name of the section you want to delete. Right-click and click Delete From Model.
