Sectioning within "DRAWING"
Sectioning within "DRAWING"
(OP)
I have two questions regarding sectioning in a DRAWING file. 1. How to omit section lines on ribs and spokes (single Part file). 2. How to show one arrow on a half section view (single Part file).
These are common applications (ANSI Standards) for individual parts. SW's "Help Index" seems VERY limited on sectional information working in "Drawing". There seems to be more flexibility working with sections in an assembly in "Drawing" than an individual product part.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Can the spokes or ribs be separate bodies in the part?

RE: Sectioning within "DRAWING"
The spokes and ribs must be part of the same body. For example: A casting with ribs.
RE: Sectioning within "DRAWING"
In SW2003 & newer versions, SW parts can be created using multiple bodies. If the web or spoke is a (non-merged) multiple body within a part, it can be omitted from the hatch pattern on the drawing.
