Creating 2D-View Sections

You can create a 2D-view section which is a set used to visualize geometry details along multiple section planes that can contain all types of Generative Shape Design features.

It lets you:

  • generate Generative Shape Design wireframe planar objects from the intersection of a 3D geometry with an intersection plane.
  • represent these objects in a view plane which may be different from the intersection plane.
  • use the tools from the Sketcher app to create additional 2D Sketcher wireframe objects in the view plane.
  • transfer geometries created in the Sketcher app in both view plane and intersection plane.
  • easily apply corner and thickness operations to Generative Shape Design geometries in the view plane.
  • visualize and select filters associated to geometries generated in the sections context.
