I am trying to find the function to revise the lengths of section lines in a view.  Currently, the default length of the section lines are too long and extend into other views on my print.  I need to shorten the section lines to be within the actual view.

RE: Sections in NX5

While in the drafting application, go to Edit -> View -> Section Line. Choose 'move segment' and pick the line that you want to move then click a new location for the line. Update the section view when you are done, it may not happen automatically.

Also try rmc (right mouse click) on the section line then go to "style"

THANKS!  THE EDIT->VIEW->SECTION LINE TIP WORKED AS I WANTED.  I WISH I WOULD HAVE FOUND THIS SITE LAST FRIDAY.  

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
