Multiple Copies of a Section View
Multiple Copies of a Section View
(OP)
I'm making a drawing that requires multiple (identical) copies of a sectional view. The way I did this was just to repeat the section command multiple times. Unfortunately, the crosshatching isn't very good. What I'd like to do is to make one section view, fix the crosshatching, then copy that view several times.
Is this possible? Any other ideas?
Thanks,

Am I doing something wrong? (Can I somehow hatch the faces in the model?)
Thanks for your help,

For instance, the first step is to put 2 o-rings on a piston, so I hide everything except those 3 parts. The next step is to put this subassembly into a body. So the next view has everything hidden except the piston, o-rings and body. Each view adds one or more parts until the assembly is complete.
This was quite easy several years ago using AutoCAD, but is a little more challenging in SW. The final drawing looks pretty good except it would be nice to clean up the crosshatching.
Hope this make sense.
