Alternate Position Not Showing Up in Section

Alternate Position Not Showing Up in Section

Alternate Position Not Showing Up in Section

(OP)
I created a left side view of my assembly then I used the Alternate Position tool to show a second configuration in phantom.  I cut a section from that view and the section does not have the Alternate Position shown and will not let me add it to it.  Does anyone know how to show an alternate position in a section view?
Using 2005 Version 4.0
Thanks

The Alternate Position View is not available in Broken, Section, Detail, or Crop views.

That's a Bummer

RE: Alternate Position Not Showing Up in Section

Well I tried this for a cropped view I needed and while it crops the view, it doesn't crop the phantom parts.

I had that same problem with cropped views that had an alternate position view shown.
