How do I draw a broken section (45 degree)

[daniel_b_94]

My English isn't excellent but i'll try to explain anyway.

I'm working on a small hospital and i need to do a section that is broken in 2 places to a 45 degree angle.

How do I do that?

Can't figure it out

Do you need the plan break to be real and in modelspace?
Or can it only be a visual break, by using viewports in paperspace?

I didn't understand what you were saying

My mother tongue is Hebrew, but my english level is sufficient to understand.

What does he mean by 'real and in modelspace'?

[nrz13]

He's asking if you want to actually cut up the drawing in Modelspace or fake in the section cuts using separate viewports in Paperspace.  Everything in Modelspace is drawn at real scale, 1:1.

I need to actually cut it in modelspace.

but i'd be glad if you could explain both methods.

Can you describe in detail what you want the end result to look like?

[daniel_b_94]

If you'll look at the picture I attached to the 1st message, you'll see a blue / teal line.

That's the section line.

I need to make a vertical section, but im not sure how to show that break point on the vertical drawing itself.

If I understand you correctly, you're asking a drafting standard question for how to setup your view for a building section, rather than help with AutoCAD itself, correct?

If you draw your section from the right-hand side up to the intersection with the 45-degree line and then rotate the plan 45 degrees from the intersection point so that the 45-degree line is now in line with the part of the section you've already drawn, you'll have a straight, continuous section.  Am I understanding what you want correctly?

Sometimes it is not easy to describ the details by words.

I also try to understand what you want.

I quickly sketch a plan and a section view. Please let us know if this is what you are going to do.
