Positional Representation / Sectional Views

Positional Representation / Sectional Views

It would be very handy if you could change the positional representation in a sectional view, without changing the positional representation of the main view.

For example, i often have to draw flanges and allways need a second view outside of the sheet, to make my sectional views.

It would be nice to have Position Representation function visible in Details, Sections, Croped Vies etc. Currently, when you make large Assemblies and whant to show movement of specific detail (e.g. Cylinder stroke) you can do it on Base View, but soon you will realize it is too tiny and that you cannot see anything there. So you decide to make additinoal detal to show this. You suprise that on your new detail isn't visible anything. Same on section. Crop function is disabled when there is Position representation. So you must add aditional 3D models in your big assembly as work around. As you got what you wanted, your big assembly is even bigger now....So, it would be very nice to have this Position Representation function on drawings work as it should.

Great. This idea must be implemented ASAP!

If you add a brekout made on a rectangular sketck including all the view you get a sectioned view without having to use a main view outside the sheet.

Of course it should be better to define the section on the model, using some planes. Other CADs work like this.
