Assembly sequence section

[diaamsaber]

Hi guys ,
I need to make a section as a step in the assembly sequence, to display a component path through the other component (e.g shaft inside housing), so is it possible?

Do you mean that at some point in the sequence, you want the 'section' to appear, and then I assume, at some later point have it disappear?

Also, what version of NX are you running?

Can you provide at least a picture of your assembly with some indication of which component(s) that you want to have 'sectioned' during the sequence? Of course, having the assembly itself would be better, with whatever sequence that you've already created included with it.

Dear John,
thank you for your reply, and yes I mean at at some point in the sequence, I want the 'section' to appear, at some later point have it disappear
