Section views of assemblies
Section views of assemblies
(OP)
I'm trying to create a sectional view of an assembly in MDT6.
I have tried radial views, offset views, aligned views but without any avail. I cannot create a cut line for the assembly.
I currently create the base view from a scene.
Anybody got any ideas?

RE: Section views of assemblies
- Constrain assembly in model space
- Set UCS at location that will define base view
- On layout, select new view and select multiple parts under data set (then select all parts when prompted in model space)
- Select UCS as viewpoint
- Insert base view in layout
- Right click on base view in model tree and select new view
- Select section tab and select full
- Select location of section view relative to base view
- Select either point or workplane for placement of section line (I usually simply select point and grab the point from the base view).
The sectioned view should appear. I hope this is what you were looking for.
