Section view with clipping planes

[zhivago]

Is there a way to create a section view with a similar functionality to clipping planes in autocad? What we want to create effectively is a slice through an assembly. A section view and then to not show sub-assemblies beyond a certain point.
I'm pretty sure it's possible in UG NX2 its just my head having a friday morning feeling!

View --> Operation --> Section

That will create your section through the assembly. It's dynamic, you can just grab the vector and move it, rotate it, etc.

You probably want to do this in Drafting mode and I asked a similar question in the past. Check the following thread link below. I'll summarize it here though.

Expand the section view in the drafting application.
Go to Preferences -> Visualiztion and you'll find Clipping plane options on the Perspective Tab.
