Partial section view of large arrangement. NX8.5 drafting.

[Stiffie]

Hello,

I've just been through NX training at work and started on this relatively complex drawing showing a shaft arrangement for an engine. However, the area of interest is only a small fraction of the total arrangement, and drafting mode seemes to be slowed down by the fact that NX tries to recut, redraw etc. for the hole arrangement all the time. Is there any possibilities for avoiding nx to care about what happens outside the view boundaries?

I also tried to have break-out sections within a sectioned view, but with extremely bad luck. Someone once told me to try to make a 3d-section view instead. Anyone tried this before?

Thanks,

Best regards, Steffen

I think you may need to turn automatic view update "off".
