How do you create a 1/2 section view?
(OP)
Is there an easy way to create a half section view? This would be a cut from 12 o'clock to the 3 o'clock along the axis of a cylindrical part.

1) In the part or assy ... by making a cut-extrude and using a config to control it's display state. That config is then used in the drawing view.
2) By using the Aligned Section View tool and make the section line follow the 12 to 3 path.

Sketch a jogged section line down the 12 axis, along the 3 axis, and then vertically down from the end.
Select a portion of the section line, activate the Section View tool and place the section view.
Right click on the section view and select Isometric Section View
