Hi,

Unfortunately, after confirmed with section view expert in our team, it's still a limitation for section view currently.

However, there is a workaround to leverage Assembly feature - Cut extrude and controlled by suppress feature suppression and adding/removing participates to create a similar view.

Below is a sample video for you to understand more.

Here's a possible workflow to achieve your desired result in a DRAWING environment.

Here are the step I too to get the sectioned iso view.

Create TOP view of assembly
Define SECTION view
Select the desired components that you wish to remain whole, and set SECTION PARTICIPATION to NONE
Project section view
