Model with Mirroring, Hidden lines Not showing up & More
(OP)
This part, it is a tee-coupler, made out of 1-1/8 Hex brass, so both ends are identical. So I made the front half and add a plane and mirrored the back half. Looked great, so I add a configuration and I sectioned off a quarter of the part. In the drawing, I imported the left view and then I imported the front view and in the properties I changed it from full view to section view, all is still well. I turn on some hidden lines in properties and all is still well. Then I went to the front view and I started to turn on some hidden lines there and suddenly the hidden lines of the thru hole would not appear and if I turn on the hidden lines of the mirror everything appears, including the threads, which I did not want and I can not get it to stop. Any thoughts or suggestions on this will be deeply appreciated. Thanks

Do the hidden lines show when it's not sectioned? Also usually a section view is done from the drawing using the "section view" tool. Is there a reason you are using a config to do it?

Oh, and to see the dimension, double click the extrude feature. UG does handle expressions better. Solidworks handles it differently, you have Linked dimensions, and equations. Linked dimensions are little more powerful as you can change the dimension in any feature and it updates them all, handle for general fillet sizes and sheetmetal thickness.
