About Working with Draft Cross-Sections
Click
Sketch >
Hatch/Fill and then use the
Hatch or
Fill commands in the
MOD XHATCH menu to hatch or fill a closed draft shape that you are using to represent a part or an assembly 2D cross-section. A draft cross-section boundary is defined by a closed loop of draft geometry.
When working with draft cross-sections, remember the following points:
• You can define unfilled or uncrosshatched areas within the closed loop.
• A draft cross section is not considered to be a single entity. Therefore, to place it on a layer, you must add the line and crosshatch pattern individually.
• You can modify only one draft cross-section at a time.
• You can delete either the entire cross-section (with the crosshatching or filling and boundary) or only the crosshatching or filling.
• You can hide or unhide crosshatch patterns within cross-sections using the View > Visibility menu.
• Draft entities that define crosshatched or filled areas should not intersect each other or the outer boundary of the section.
