Drafting Section View Problem
Drafting Section View Problem
(OP)
Hi All;
Has anyone had this problem before?
I'm creating a drawing from an assembly (approx. 60 parts) and want to add section views. But when I use any of the section view/cut icons (Offset section view etc...) my new section view has thick black lines/boxes around some of the parts. Does anyone know why this is happening? Or how I can eliminate them?
Thanks in advance
Bacvar

Not being able to see exactly what you are seeing the only thing I've come across was a section where the pitch of the pattern was to high for the area resulting in the display of bold lines.

We've seen similar symptoms on V5 R13. When we looked more closely at the results, it seemed to occur where Catia had difficulty resolving a given cross-section - where there was more than one possible choice (e.g. due to a clash in an interference type coupling), Catia highlighted all affected sections in thick black lines.
Ass KooKoo stated, altering the pattern in these areas - or simply regenerating them - allowed the cross-section to be resolved

I'm sure you didn't mean to call me an @$$

Sorry KooKoo - genuine typing error, Honest!.
In my defence though, I have to state that I'm suffering from a severe lack of concentration today - it's a gorgeous day here; I should be out there with a few beers cremating something on the BBQ instead of wrestling with the joys of V5.
