Creating Sections Using Offset Constraints

You can create sections (aligned/offset) by applying an offset constraint with respect to a valid edge or a hole as a reference element. You can also apply an offset constraint to the second or a higher profile segment for offset section views and cuts.

This task shows you how to:


Before you begin:
  • Open a product containing a 3D part and a generated drawing representation.
  • Make sure the front view is active on the drawing (double-click it if needed).
  • Tile your windows vertically to see both your part and the related drawing.
