Centerlines in section views of partial cylindrical parts.

I'm currently detailing a part that's about one-third of a cylindrical piece (the part is lathed as a whole and cut into thirds). I'm trying to project the centerline onto the section view so I can ordinate dimension to it.  I cannot figure out how it's done. Please see attached image file.

Welcome to the forum,

Did you try using this command in your drawing?

That worked for the top view, but not for the sectioned view.  Unless I'm doing something wrong.

What you could do is "Include" and Existing Work feature, (Workplane/ Axis)

 

- Expand the tree of the selected view

- Expand the Origin Work features

- RMB on the work axis and select "Include"

 

If the Origins are in the wrong place, go and make an Axis and use that.
